New Flexible Crystal may Lead to More Efficient Bendable Electronics
Written by AZoMFeb 8 2021
Headed by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), a research team has designed a novel material that can flex and bend 40 times more than its competitors when an electric current is applied on it, paving the way to more improved micro machines.

A team of researchers led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) has developed a new material, that when electricity is applied to it, can flex and bend forty times more than its competitors, opening the way to better micro machines.
Conversely, when it is bent, it generates electricity very effectively and could be used for better energy harvesting - potentially recharging batteries in gadgets just from everyday movements.
