Bio-solar panel
Researchers created a two-in-one solar bio-battery and solar panel created by who printed living cyanobacteria and circuitry onto paper.
Now, a research team has reveal that cyanobacteria could use an ink and printed from an inkjet printer in precise patterns onto electrically conductive carbon nanotubes, which also inkjet-printed onto the piece of paper.
A bio-solar panel could power a digital clock. The researchers from Imperial College London suggest that new types of electrical devices made from paper and printed photosynthetic bacteria.
Dr. Marin Sawa, a co-author from the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London, said, we think our technology could have a range of applications such as acting as a sensor in the environment. Imagine a paper-based, disposable environmental sensor disguised as wallpaper, which could monitor air quality in the home.
