Sustainable electronics is a new concept that tries to address the problem of e-waste and energy/resources intensive processes of ICs manufacturing. While the industry is focusing on net-zero manufacturing and the replacement of rare metals with more sustainable ones, more exploratory research is investigating new materials derived from natural sources or even from biowaste upcycling.

Abstract

Sustainable electronics is a new concept that tries to address the problem of e-waste and energy/resources intensive processes of ICs manufacturing. While the industry is focusing on net-zero manufacturing and the replacement of rare metals with more sustainable ones, more exploratory research is investigating new materials derived from natural sources or even from biowaste upcycling. This paper will review some of these recent trends with emphasis on the optoelectronic properties of chitosan thin films and carbon dot nanoparticles extracted from food waste.
