Soft Electronics TC

Soft electronics has been emerging rapidly and is envisioned as the future of next-generation electronic devices where devices can be readily deployed in various environments and scenarios, such as on-body, on-skin, biomedical implants, sensors, robotics, agriculture, etc. Soft electronics requires conductors, semiconductors, dielectrics in certain formats as the key enabling materials to realize desired functions and performances. The recent advancements in nanotechnology has particularly spurred the advances of soft electronics in many aspects. A plethora of nanomaterials (including but not limited to nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanowires, graphene, and other 2D materials) have played a key role in soft electronics. It is of timely importance to establish a platform that can bring together researchers to foster knowledge exchange and promote discussions on the recent development and future of nanotechnology for soft electronics and related topics.
