Researchers at Polyera Corp. say they’ve invented a new polymer that closes an important gap in the field of printing electronics on plastic. The polymer is an organic semiconductor that, unlike other such materials, conducts electrons, they report today in the online version of the journal Nature. Together with existing polymer semiconductors, the new material was used to print complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuits, the type that make up today’s silicon logic.
