The flexible transistors recently developed by IBM will soon allow the construction of storage screens. According to IBM researchers, this type of transistors will also be very cheap.

So far, transistors were rigid materials, while transistors developed by IBM combine organic and inorganic materials into layers and each layer is hundreds of times thinner than normal hair.

If these transistors are developed in the form of plastic they will allow to mold the shape of the screen in several ways.
