Sentences with phrase «conductive electrical devices»

Not exact matches

Many touch screens are made of layered thin (billionths of a meter thick) films of indium - tin oxide, an inorganic material that is electrically conductive, which allows electrical signals to travel from the «touch» to the edges of the display, where they are sensed by the device — as well as optically transparent.

Currently, they are manufactured using indium tin oxide (ITO), which has the advantage of excellent electrical conductive properties but the disadvantage of poor flexibility, making it unsuitable for wearable devices.

Cross thinks that if he can control the way the ribbons form and stack, he might be able to use them as transistors (electrical switches), capacitors (devices that store electrical charge) or connections between electrically conductive graphene sheets.
