Executives from an array of printed electronics companies will describe progress in the field at SEMICON West. Materials, equipment and manufacturing processes for printed electronics are a focus at the show, including a July 16 session on Manufacturing Technology for Commercial Printed and Flexible Electronics. more » » »

The MEMS industry continues to do remarkably well compared with the IC industry because it is so highly diversified. While automotive, industrial pressure sensing and inkjet head markets are struggling, new medical and portable system markets are growing rapidly. more » » »

Graphene and spin wave transistors are among the technologies that look interesting for next-generation FETs. Near term, nanoelectronics products are entering commercial production. At SEMICON West, nanoelectronics challenges are part of the show's Extreme Electronics series on emerging technologies. more » » »

NEC presented a spintronics MRAM cell at the Symposium on VLSI Technology in Kyoto, Japan. The cell uses a vertical magnetic structure that may be scalable to sizes smaller than today's SRAM cells. more » » »

New displays aimed at E-books and other portable products were at center stage at the Society of Information Displays (SID) conference. Electrophoretic displays used for E-book applications are seeking to move to color, while flexible ultrathin AMOLED displays are adopting a multilayer stack approach to improve lifetimes. more » » »
