Low-Cost Method for Printing Electronics Uses Graphene

A new method for printing electronics has just been discovered, and it could change the manufacturing process, making it faster and less expensive. The new method, developed by researchers at the University of Cambridge in collaboration with Cambridge-based technology company Novalia, uses graphene and other conductive materials that can open up a wide range of commercial applications.

The method uses a conventional roll-to-roll printing process, similar to printing newspapers and crisp packets.

Potential applications include inexpensive printed electronics, intelligent packaging and disposable sensors.
