Aims
In the era of IoT, smart devices with different functionalities have to be integrated into objects that are normally employed in our daily life and should be capable to wirelessly transfer information. In this context, the development of novel devices and materials, capable to enable the development of innovative, cost efficient and large area electronic systems is fundamental. This section is committed to exploring the synthesis, development, characterization, and modeling of materials and their application in the fabrication of innovative electronic devices and systems, including field-effect transistor, bio-chemical and physical sensors, memory elements, neuromorphic devices etc.
The aim of this section is to provide the researcher with a highly multidisciplinary platform where they can report and read about (i) synthesis and processing of novel materials for electronics; (ii) chemical and physical properties of materials; (iii) design and fabrication of novel devices; (iv) novel fabrication procedures, with particular attention towards high throughput, cost efficient and eco-friendly approaches (v) novel applications, from flexible and wearable cirtuits, to smart tags, lab on chip, artificial skin etc.
