Advance allows fibres to compute like chips or display information like transistors, paving the way for machine-wearable smart textiles.

Flexible Fiber Chip: China Reinvents Semiconductors with Hair-Thin Technology - Economic Scenarios

The world of electronics, until now, has been based on a seemingly unshakable dogma: chips are rigid, flat, and made of silicon. This industrial orthodoxy

China Reveals Flexible Computer Chips That You Can Even Wash

Chinese researchers have announced a major advance in electronics with the creation of fiber chips. These are integrated circuits embedded within ultrathin, flexible fibers that can compute, communicate, and be woven into fabrics or high-tech devices. The breakthrough, published in the journal Nature, represents a bold departure from traditional rigid silicon chips and could accelerate […] The post China Reveals Flexible Computer Chips That You …
