India, March 24 -- The Government of India issued the following news release:
Researchers have developed a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) wherein flexible single crystals of an organic compound was used as the main component for the fabrication of a self-powered tactile sensor which was used to monitor finger joint movements. This has significant importance particularly in biomedical and robotic system development and could pave the way for their utilization as biomedical wearable devices.
Organic materials are gaining importance for optoelectronic applications because of their lower cost and environmental footprint, easy fabrication, and practical feasibility. Among various organic materials, single crystals are better suited for dev...
