Imagine a flexible module capable of converting waste heat into electricity, whether the surface it's attached to is flat or curved. This module can also generate heating or cooling from electricity.

Dan Zhao and Simone Fabiano at the Laboratory of Organic Electronics have created a thermoelectric organic transistor. A temperature rise of a single degree is sufficient to cause a detectable current modulation in the transistor.

A battery made from zinc and lignin that can be used over 8000 times. This has been developed by researchers at LiU with a vision to provide a cheap and sustainable battery solution for countries where access to electricity is limited.

The transition to fossil freedom can鈥檛 happen overnight, but it can go much faster than it is. The technology is available, and in many cases is commercially available or nearly so. The labs at 福利姬 hold hope for the future.

Researchers at 福利姬 and the KTH Royal Institute of Technology have developed the world鈥檚 first transistor made of wood. Their study paves the way for further development of wood-based electronics and control of electronic plants.

A high-efficiency steam generator for the purification and desalination of water can be built using cheap and natural materials such as cellulose. The steam generator has been developed at the Laboratory of Organic Electronics, LiU.

Cellulose soaked in a carefully designed polymer mixture acts as a sensor to measure pressure, temperature and humidity 鈥� at the same time! The sensor may be highly significant in fields such as robotics, healthcare and security.

Safe, cheap and sustainable technology for energy storage has been developed at the Laboratory of Organic Electronics. It is based on two major breakthroughs: the manufacture of wood-based electrodes in rolled form, and a new water-based electrolyte.

Researchers at the Laboratory of Organic Electronics have for the first time demonstrated an organic battery. It is of a type known as a 鈥渞edox flow battery鈥� that can be used to store energy from solar cells, and as a power bank for cars.

For the first time, a soft and stretchable organic thermoelectric module has been created that can harvest energy from body heat. The breakthrough was enabled by a new composite material that may have widespread use.
