Crumpling approach enhances photodetectors' light responsivity

Thursday, April 7, 2016 - 13:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers have demonstrated a new approach to modifying the light absorption and stretchability of atomically thin two-dimensional (2-D) materials by surface topographic engineering using only mechanical strain. The highly flexible system has future potential for wearable technology and integrated biomedical optical sensing technology when combined with flexible light-emitting diodes.
