Scientists develop ultra-thin semiconductor fibers that turn fabrics into wearable electronics

Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed ultra-thin semiconductor fibres that can be woven into fabrics, turning them into smart wearable electronics. To create reliably functioning semiconductor fibres, they must be flexible and without defects for stable signal transmission. However, existing manufacturing methods cause stress and instability, leading to cracks and deformities … Read more
