Lexington, KY – Merit analysis is a vital element of the scientific process, ensuring that research is based on rigorous evidence and sound methodology. It enables scientific advancement, boosts credibility, quality, and reliability for future research. It allows a research community to build a common language, common practices, and common logic. Sometimes, however, a discovery …
In this video, PhD student researcher Paula Alarcon-Espejo walks us through the utilization of PEDOT:PSS fibers in Organic Electrochemical Transistors (OECTs). These transistors are biocompatible and can their optimization can help create flexible, conductive materials for use in textiles, prosthetics, and other applications. Organic semiconductors and electrochemical transistors promise to enable new generations of low-cost, …
