Researchers at the Technical University of Dresden in Germany say that they have succeeded in producing the world’s first bipolar transistor which is made entirely of organic materials. Specifically impregnated rubrene.
A transistor is an electronic component that opens and closes an electrical circuit or amplifies an electrical current. They are usually made of silicon.
The new organic production could make it possible to produce bendable and transparent electronics at low cost that could be used in, for example, packaging, clothing or the human body.
