Japanese breakthrough takes us closer to ‘e-skin’
A team of UT researchers has made a breakthrough to develop a very malleable, comfortable OLED display capable of being placed on a person’s skin; it measures just two micrometres in thickness using a layering of organic and inorganic material, specifically parylene and silicon oxynitrite, respectively.
....the protective film they have created is completely airtight, both from oxygen and water vapour, with the screen coming to fruition thanks to the attaching of transparent indium tin oxide electrodes.
Compared with previous ultra-thin wearable attempts, the energy storage capabilities have increased from holding charge only for a matter of hours, to several days.
