ABSTRACT

In today’s world of ever-expanding technology, Polytronics is going to for many years


plastics were well known merely as INSULATORS and were used predominantly for shielding
copper wires. Now the emerging new technology Polytronics, changes our viewpoint in
visualizing the conducting polymers as a material of MICROELECTRONICS. Microelectronics
technology in conjunction with silicon is flexible enough to easy rolling up of circuits that
consume less power and above all they can be manufactured at a fraction of cost involved in
making semiconductor chips. This technology has number of upcoming areas of interest where
lot of research is going on to manufacture microelectronic components on plastic substrates
which would allow manufacturing of gadgets through just printing process.

If this technology emerges practically, the world of electronics will take a new leap
change the whole world of consumer electronics and form the principal root for the major
advancement in the design of electronic circuits and manufacture of printed circuit boards (PCB).
The era of polymer electronics has taken a great start and all the technological companies have
turned their entire research towards Polytronics. In the forthcoming years Polytronics will
accelerate the pace of the technological advancements and describe a new dimension in the near
future.
