Introduction History Technology Features Limitations Future
INTRODUCTION
The Nokia Morph is a theoretical future device based on NANOTECHNOLOGY that might enable future communication devices.
Morph also demonstrates how future mobile devices might be stretchable, flexible, transparent and self cleaning.
HISTORY
has been introduced to the global world at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City from February 24 to May 12 of 2008 as part of the "Design and the Elastic Mind" exhibition.
The concept emerged through collaboration between Nokia Research Center and Cambridge University Nanoscience Center in the UK.
TECHNOLOGY
Nanotechnology
NANOTECHNOLOGY means The science, engineering and technology related to the understanding and control of matter at the length scale of approximately 1 to 100 nanometers.
NANOTECHNOLOGY allows control of physical properties of nanostructures and devices with single molecule precision.
NANOGRASS, NANOSENSORS, NANOFLOWERS, NANOSCALE MESHetc ARE THE NANOTECHNOLOGIES USED INSIDE NOKIA MORPH.
FEATURES
1. SENSING
OBSERVE OUR LOCAL ENVIRONMENT THAT ANALYZING POLLUTIONS ,TEMPERATURE etc. INCLUDES
NANOSENSORS CONSTRUCT A COMPLETE AWARNESS OF THE USER CONTEXT BOTH PERSONAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL ENABLING AN APPROPRIATE AND INTELLIGENT RESPONSE.
INORDER TO IMPROVE SENSOR AND SIGNAL PROCESING CHARACTERISTICS NOKIA INTRODUCED NANOWIRE LITHOGRAPHY (NWL) PROCESS THAT FABRICATES A LARGE AREA AND SELF ALIGNED 3D ARCHITECTURES.
2. HAPTIC SURFACE
Touch sensitive and responsive [haptic] surface of NOKIA morph is provided by large area sensing surfaces using piezoelectric nanowire arrays. ZnO nanowires are used to produce the piezoelectric nanowire arrays. Buttons on the device surface are real 3D forms.
3. SELF CLEANING
The surface of morph is superhydrophobic that makes it extremely dirt repellent. Nanostructured surface known as nanoflowers that naturally repel water, dirt and even finger-prints is used here.
NANOFLOWER
Double roughening of a hydrophobic surface, on the submicron and nanometer scale, creates superhydrophobicity.

nanostructures
NANOGRASS is used for harvesting solar power. NOKIA developed a full solid state flexible DYE SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL (DSSC) using ZnO Nanostructures which act as photovoltaics For this purpose.

5. STRETCHABLE ELECTRONICS
The nanoscale structure of the electronics enables stretching. Stretchable electronics structure to allow device form factors. Nanoscale internal structures controls the elasticity.

NANOWIRE LITHOGRAPHY
NanoWire Lithography (NWL) uses NanoWires (NWs) as etch masks to transfer their one-dimensional morphology to an underlying substrate.

NANOSCALE FIBRES
6. TRANSPARENT ELECTRONICS
The whole electronic circuit inside NOKIA morph is entirely transparent. Nanoscale electronics becomes invisible to the human eye.
TRRAM
Transparent Resistive Random Access Memory (TRRAM) developed by Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) as the major platform for the transparent electronics concept of morph. By integrating TRRAM device with other transparent electronic components a total see through embedded electronic system could be developed. TRRAM records data by changing the resistance of a metal oxide film known as Resistive Ram.

7. WEARABLE DEVICE
Can be used a watch or a band.
LIMITATIONS
THE INITIAL MANUFACTURING COST IS VERY HIGH. THE EXPECTED MARKET PRICE IS AROUND
Rs 60000/-. CONVENTIONAL DSSCs PROVIDES UNSTABILITY RELATED TO SOLVENT LEAKAGE AND EVAPORATION
FUTURE SCOPE
THE SHAPES COULD BE MADE MUCH MORE SIMPLER LIKE IN RING SHAPE. MORPH IN OPEN MODE COULD ACT AS A KEYBOARD FOR PCs.
