Writer’s ChoiceTitle:Flexible Electronics devices using Compound semiconductors.

My requirement is to write Introduction focusing on Compound semiconductors and its properties and why it can replace the most common material silicon which is used for wide range of electronics devices including flexible electronics technology in the future. The project is described as follows:- Future electronics will be bendable and conformable. Recent technological advances have enabled flexible electronic systems, mainly through exploring organic semiconductors, amorphous and polycrystalline silicon, and more recently also using single crystal silicon to meet high-performance requirements. With mobility in the range of 10–5 to 500 cm2V–1 s–1, these materials have been used to develop devices in thin-film formats on flexible substrates for applications like displays and electronic skin. However, applications with demanding high-frequency and ultra-low power consumption requirements, such as wireless communications in body-area sensor networks require materials with much higher mobilities. For such applications, compound semiconductors with lattice constant around 6.1 A (eg InAs, GaInSb) – the so called 6.1 semiconductors, with mobilities of greater than 10,000 cm2/Vs are the materials of choice. This project will investigate the suitability of various compound semiconductor devices as routes to high-frequency (1-10 GHz), low power (<1 mW) bibliography [Harvard style] and the sources should be mostly from research journal article for example: IEEE Xplore: The Journal of Engineering
