Rubbery transistors make stretchy logic and touch sensors

University of Houston have created an elastic semiconductor with 8.57cm2/Vs charge carrier mobility, and then made transistors, logic and a sensor array from it. Carrier mobility is largely retained when stretched by 50%. The semiconductor concerned is poly(3-hexylthiophene) – ‘P3HT’. This is not the first time the team has made stretchy transistors from this material, but it ...
