Printed electronics opportunity (and challenge)
A $300 billion industry is in the making, argues Raghu Das, CEO of analyst firm IDTechEx (and the first guest contributor to PARC’s blog). Printed electronics offers many features and manufacturing advantages. But while enabling devices have been created, how do we move from devices to products to new markets?

Smart technology scouting
Technology scouting has been happening for many years. Yet the models for how best to find and secure opportunities are still emerging as companies increasingly look outside for options.

Flexible Electronics
PARC's expertise in large-area electronics extends back to the 1970s, when we began researching and developing amorphous silicon. Much of our current work involves thin film transistors and p-i-n photodiodes for flat panel display and image sensor backplanes, as well as solar cells.

Organic & Printed Electronics
High-performance printed devices are achieved by materials understanding and device design that allows the formation of good dielectric/semiconductor and semiconductor/metal interfaces.
