However, most of these circuits are built on flat, rigid surfaces that can't bend, stretch, or fold, says Darren Lipomi, a nanoengineer at the University of California, San Diego, who was not involved in the new study.

Halas, Rice's Stanley C. Moore Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering and professor of chemistry, bioengineering, physics and astronomy, and materials science and nanoengineering, said hot electrons are particularly interesting for solar - energy applications because they can be used to create devices that produce direct current or to drive chemical reactions on otherwise inert metal surfaces.
