(November 6, 2003) Cambridge, Mass.&#8212Researchers at Harvard University have demonstrated for the first time that they can easily apply a film of tiny, high-performance silicon nanowires to glass and plastic, a development that could pave the way for the next generation of cheaper, lighter and more powerful consumer electronics. The development could lead to such futuristic products as disposable computers and optical displays that can be worn in your clothes or contact lenses, they say. Their research appears in the November issue of Nano Letters, a peer-reviewed publication of the American Chemical Society.
