Conductive nanofibers extracted from long marine bacteria: a radically new source material for organic electronics University of Antwerp
Recently, a novel type of filamentous bacteria has been discovered within the seafloor, which arecapable of guiding electrical currents over centimeter-scale distances. Electrons are transportedfrom cell-to-cell along the longitudinal axis of centimeter-long cable bacteria, but the actual physicalmechanism of conduction remains elusive. The prime objectives of this FWO project are (1) toidentify the conductive structures responsible for ...
