Plastics have long formed the skeleton and skin products, while Silicon has put brains. With the advent of polymer and crystalline organic electronics, plastics will be the brains as well as brawn.
Plastic chips can never be as fast or as tiny as Silicon chips, but their production of convenient ways including inkjet, promises very cheap device that could become the ubiquitous in consumer goods and home appliances. Potential applications include information displays for appliances and computers, electronic paper, RFID tag, all electronics, chemical sensors and pressure-sensitive skin for robots.
Conductive plastic is used to create a new memory technology with the potential to store data in a square millimeter megabit device-in 10 times more dense than currently magnetic memories. The device must also be cheaply and quickly, but may not be rewritten, so will only be suitable for permanent storage
