Eco-Friendly Organic Bioelectronic Devices for Skin

In this research, we proposed a material technology for eco-friendly electronics based on organic active channels, passivation/insulators and substrates. For this purpose, organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors and inorganic clay nanostructures were combined to induce insect eating and microbial decomposition, leading to biodegradation with minimal environmental pollution issues. Furthermore, active channel materials were patterned on cellulose substrates with silver ink-based electrodes for modest-performance organic electrochemical transistors and their application to skin biosensors.
