The next step on the screens.

One of the things that have evolved and changed the most in the last 50 years are screens. We have gone from huge cathode ray tube screens to flat screens, then to touch screens, with which we can interact, and lately to screens that bend, but the next step may be flexible screens that can be stretched.

And that is what they have managed to create at Stanford University in the United States and that you can see in the video, the chemical engineer from Stanford University Zhitao Zhang and her BAO research team seek to create devices inspired by human skin, which be soft and elastic, for this they have been developing after more than three years of work, a sample of what would be a stretchable and potentially remodelable screen, their invention depends on the discovery of a method to produce a high elastic light-emitting polymer brightness that works like a filament in a light bulb.

The researchers have given an example to explain their invention in a simpler way, they say that the polymers of which normal screens such as those of our mobile and cell phones are made are brittle, but the researchers have managed to add nanostructures, these nanostructures connect polymers as if it were a fishing rod and it is what makes the resulting structure flexible in the end.

The device they have invented has a maximum brightness of at least twice that of a cell phone and can be stretched to twice its original length without tearing.
