Will Silicon Transistors Be Replaced Paper Transistors?

September 24th, 2009 by rosenbbs · No Comments · Physics

The increase in the need of flexibility of transistors is becoming more and more. Silicon is brittle and it is a little toxic. Scientists have found that it is possible to use a cellulose paper transistor. A challenging part in doing this is putting wires and electrodes on the paper. The scientists now need to find a way to mass-produce and figure out the mechanics of the paper transistor. For more information, click here.

Our world is using more technology than ever before. The paper transistors will be used in numerous things that are getting smaller. This will lead to other changes in our electronics by substituting more environment-friendly parts in for the existing parts. Jobs to work on this will open and further advancements will be made. It is amazing that God has given us the brain power to figure out all of these new advancements.
