Scientists are creating self-healing electronics, that use liquid metal to instantly resto...



a hard material is impregnated with microcapsules that burst when the material breaks down, releasing stored liquid that hardens on contact with air so repair crack ... It's a system we've seen recently used in a number of applications, including polymer concrete and self-healing. Now a team of researchers from the University of Illinois is its application to electronics. They created a system that automatically restores the conductivity of a circuit break in just a split second ...
