Now imagine the possibilities for, say, mobile cellphones that can double as e-book readers.

“Normally used for devices such as the Amazon Kindle or basic displays on flash drives,” says Electronista, “the new cells are as much as 40 percent thinner and can be cut into either unusual 2D shapes or bent into regular forms, such as curves. They also survive harsher temperatures, the designer says, allowing the extremely power-efficient designs to stand more exposure outside.”
