Bioelectronics: Water Soluble Cationic Poly(3,4‐Ethylenedioxythiophene) PEDOT‐N as a Versatile Conducting Polymer for Bioelectronics (Adv. Electron. Mater. 10/2020)

Conducting Polymer Devices for Bioelectronics

The emergence of organic electronics – a technology that relies on carbon-based semiconductors to deliver devices with unique properties – represents one of the most dramatic developments of the past two decades. A rapidly emerging new direction in the field involves the interface with biology. The " soft " nature of organics offers better mechanical compatibility with tissue than traditional e...

Nano-Bioelectronics.

Nano-bioelectronics represents a rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field that combines nanomaterials with biology and electronics and, in so doing, offers the potential to overcome existing challenges in bioelectronics. In particular, shrinking electronic transducer dimensions to the nanoscale and making their properties appear more biological can yield significant improvements in the sensiti...

Switchable bioelectronics.

We review the rapidly emerging field of switchable interfaces and its implications for bioelectronics. We seek to piece together early breakthroughs and key developments, and highlight and discuss the future of switchable bioelectronics by focusing on bio-electrochemical processes based on mimicking and controlling biological environments with external stimuli. All these studies strive to answe...

Advances in nanowire bioelectronics.

Semiconductor nanowires represent powerful building blocks for next generation bioelectronics given their attractive properties, including nanometer-scale footprint comparable to subcellular structures and bio-molecules, configurable in nonstandard device geometries readily interfaced with biological systems, high surface-to-volume ratios, fast signal responses, and minimum consumption of energ...
