🖥️ UNSW researchers have developed a tiny, transparent and flexible insulator material for transistors.

The new material would enable semiconductor electronics to get smaller without compromising their function. 👏

[UNSW @UNSW]

Published in @Nature, the research resolves one of the crucial bottlenecks for the development of a new generation of futuristic electronic devices, from augmented reality to flexible displays, and many undiscovered applications.

This new "self-charging battery" can harvest enough energy from moisture to power small electronic devices.

It sounds too good to be true — so, how does it work?
