ADVANCED MATERIALS FOR FUTURE MOBILE DEVICES

A larger and larger part of consumer electronic goods is transforming to be mobile, which will require novel solutions for power efficiency and performance. In order to ensure the user experience for devices, that are always with you, the form factor of the device has to be optimized  for different situations. An adaptive device with sensors will be able to change the mode according to the context and to operate even as a health assistant. The device will also be connected to other devices locally and globally via radio.

These are formidable challenges, impossible for current technologies but maybe achievable by nanotechnology. I will discuss how nanotechnology will enable thin, light weight, energy efficient, transparent, stretchable devices, and especially how allotropes of carbon will be utilized both for high frequency and low cost electronics, transparent, flexible connectors, displays and speakers, flexible batteries and super capacitors with high energy and power density. The possibility to change the electrical properties of graphene by modifying the geometry of the graphene ribbons or a periodic potential on graphene film opens ways, not only for enhancing the performance of current devices, but designing completely new kind of electronics.
