Organic Electronic

Electronics today are dominated by inorganic materials, especially silicon. Development of organic electronic devices, necessary for that desired flexibility, has been stymied until now because ordinary solvents used in the photolithographic process are very damaging to active organic materials. The researchers have developed a new process that instead employs supercritical CO2--a far gentler solvent with properties midway between a gas and a liquid.
In the future, organic electronics are expected someday to compose a multi-billion industry. With organic, electronic much more efficient and lighter than the current technology, making them much cheaper to produce and easier to mount on buildings.
