Researchers have developed an advanced thin-film technology embedded with nano-sized gold particles that could significantly accelerate the development of self-powered sensors, flexible electronics and next-generation wearable devices. The breakthrough offers a promising route toward energy-efficient electronic systems capable of generating power from mechanical movements such as body motion, vibrations or environmental forces.   The innovative thin films combine nanostructured gold with functional materials to enhance electrical and mechanical performance at microscopic levels. Scientists observed that embedding nano-gold particles within ultra-thin films improves charge transport, sensitivity and energy conversion efficiency, enabling…
