We are also interested in exploring new material platforms, utilizing stretchable and thin-film materials, that integrate optical and electronic functionality for the purposes of realizing new body-worn and bio-medical devices.
In the pursuit of material platforms for the next generation of electronics, scientists are studying new compounds such as topological insulators (TIs), which support protected electron states on the surfaces of crystals that silicon-based technologies cannot.
The distinct emphasis on power, operational robustness, volume manufacturability and system cost posts a number of challenges in photonic material platform choice, device design, integration scheme, and packaging, etc.
Looking forward, the combination of advanced nonlinear optoelectronic techniques and new material platforms both in 2D and 3D can enable ample exciting possibilities to discover topology and geometry beyond the current paradigm.
To this end, versatile and accessible material platforms are required in order to study angiogenic events in a systematic way.
Therefore, demonstrating contact guidance and topography in a biodegradable material platform is a promising strategy for controlling cellular arrangements in tissue engineering scaffolds.
It is proposed that a production platform philosophy and platform-based design of non-assembled products should rely on Product platforms, Process platforms and Raw-material platforms that are well-integrated into common Production platforms, in an end-to-end perspective.
We endeavor to be promptly responsive in correcting errors in material published on digital platforms and in print.
AC is currently coordinating the technologies in support of the Smart Materials platform at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, with the aim of realizing a smart sensing skin.
Almost everything is cast in a variety of textile materials, with platforms and other obstacles made from suede, tweed, and of course, wool.
