Better Technology For Developing Plastic Solar Cells And Plastic Electronic Devices Created

Wednesday, July 9, 2008 - 12:28 in Physics & Chemistry

A new way to help technologists develop efficient and inexpensive plastic electronic devices, such as plastic solar cells and a new type of transistor has been developed. As the probe bobs up and down the force required to keep it oscillating at a steady rate changes measurably, which tells the scientists about the nature of the scanned surface. By using different vibration frequencies, it is possible obtain nanoscale measurements on materials.
