Transient electronics are designed to operate for programmed life times and then degrade leaving little to no trace behind. The initial work on transient electronics has been focused on biomedical applications in which the electronics are implanted, but eventually degrade and resorb into the body after the treatment is complete [1]. Biomedical transient electronics typically use a water soluble...

Recent editorials in BMJ by a number of authors has motivated me to publish the results of research into babies’ breathing that myself and the late Leif Karlsson (a Swedish biomedical electronics engineer living in Australia) conducted with Cotwatch breathing monitor, developed by Leif at my suggestion in 1985/86. Leif died in 1994 and the Cotwatch breathing monitor died with him: I had it deli...

Semiconducting materials are central to the development of high-performance electronics that are capable of dissolving completely when immersed in aqueous solutions, groundwater, or biofluids, for applications in temporary biomedical implants, environmentally degradable sensors, and other systems. The results reported here include comprehensive studies of the dissolution by hydrolysis of polycr...

The industrial electronics (IE) discipline includes a wide variety of technical areas devoted to the application and electrical sciences for enhancement manufacturing processes. It inherently acts as key enabling technology diverse number applications latest developments in intelligent computer control systems, robotics, factory communications automation, flexible manufacturing, data acquisitio...

The enhancement of existing electronics healthcare (e-health) has used internet-based embedded sensing biomedical devices. The biomedical devices are capable to interact with other mobile applications to deliver healthcare services on a global scale. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) working group has introduced IPv6 over wireless personal area networks (6LoWPAN). The 6LoWPAN technolog...

electron components have been steadily decreasing in size, while molecular materials have in recent years been found to exhibit many of the properties used in electronics. such developments are giving rise to a new field in which molecular materials are used for electronic applications. molecular electronics offers .
