Silicone-based transistors

Caption

Saarbrücken research teams are using thin silicone films to develop low-cost, energy-efficient transistors. Their aim is to create flexible elastomer-based circuits for high-voltage applications. Research engineer Mario Cerino (photo) is working on the development of these novel transistor structures.
