…of its kind in a new study published in Nano Energy. The PGTFT exhibits an unprecedented operation between two modes, namely depletion and accumulation, and a record gauge factor (ratio of relative change in current to mechanical strain) of 2,780, indicating its extreme sensitivity. “PGTFTs relying solely on the piezo-gating effect are essential for developing advanced piezotronic devices,” said Prof. Chuan-Pu Liu, the corresponding author of the study. “But most PGTFTs reported so far show indistinct piezo-gating effect through SBH modulation induced by piezoelectric fields, and [they] can detect only one-dimensional strain.” In their work, the researchers used zinc oxide…

Nano Dimension Ltd. has developed 3D printed capacitors with the company’s DragonFly additive manufacturing system. These capacitors are embedded in the body of the additively manufactured printed circuit boards (PCBs), saving space and eliminating the need for assembly, the company reports. This type of additive manufacturing of electronics validates the manufacturing applicability of built-in capacitors in PCBs printed with the DragonFly system. Nano Dimension’s testing with capacitors of different 3D dimensions have shown consistent results with statistically validated data. The repeatability results show less than 1% variance. The technology uses the same dielectric and metal traces as in the additively…
