The LPES Lab participated in the 2026 IEEE International Conference on Flexible and Printable Sensors and Systems (FLEPS), held in Atlanta, Georgia, where faculty and students presented recent research in flexible and printed electronics. Prof. Joseph Andrews delivered an invited presentation on the lab’s latest research activities. Zahra Bahrami and Chenkun Lyu each presented oral …
We are thrilled to announce that Zahra Bahrami has recently published an important paper in Advanced Optical Materials. Her research introduces a novel solution-processed hybrid phototransistor that combines semiconducting carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) using an innovative crystallization technique. The device exhibits exceptional sensitivity to low-intensity visible light, achieving a photoresponsivity of 3.53 × …
On November 19, 2024, the LPES Lab participated in the Thoreau Elementary Family Science Night, bringing hands-on science and engineering to the curious minds at Thoreau Elementary School. Through engaging activities like a conductive maze, a flexible printed piano, and a pressure sensor demonstration, our team introduced young scientists to innovative circuit fabrication techniques and …
On October 15, 2024, LPES Laboratory had the privilege of participating in the Wisconsin Science Festival. During the event, we engaged young students by showcasing various scientific concepts and technologies. Our demonstrations included the natural nitrate cycle, an Arduino-based soil moisture sensor, and a cutting-edge soil nitrate monitoring device developed using printed electronics technology. We …
