Transparent Transistors Are Coming

Posted by samzenpus on from the invisible-keyboard dept.

Roland Piquepaille writes "Transparent electronics is an emerging technology which aims to produce invisible electronic circuits. Now, researchers from Oregon report they made a major advance in transparent electronics. Their zinc-tin-oxide 'thin-film' materials are amorphous, physically robust, chemically stable and cheap to produce at just above room temperature. These new materials and transistors offer many new possibilities for consumer electronics, transportation, business and the military."

    Sure. Just because two compounds shares two out of three chemical elements, they must be a lot alike. Hey, they sound alike, and that's all that matters, right?

    Or did you have an actual reason (other than similar names) for stating this opinion? If so, would you let us know what it is?

    "s this "service" worth up to $647 a month? Or, does each "article" represent up to $80 of work?"

    "you're not only a moron, but a moron who seems to be missing the point."

    I'd rather be a moron than a uppity self-righteous git.
