| Abstract Scope |
Nanomembranes are thin, flexible, transferable and can be shaped into unique 3D micro- and nanoarchitectures. This makes them attractive for various scientific disciplines ranging from «Electronic Soft-Wear» to «Microrobotic Hard-Ware». This talk explores the underlying science of nanomembranes and discusses the fascinating application potential of this particular class of nanomaterials ranging from flexible microchips for electronic skin [1] and self-assembled 3D microelectronics [2] to medical and microelectronic microbots [3,4]. Particular attention will be paid to the challenge of on-board energy supply for autonomously acting smart dust microsystems [5].
