Researchers at Northwestern University have developed a new kind of material that could revolutionize multiple industries by the time it moves into production.

The material is composed of sustainable materials and is biocompatible.

It could be used in low-power, energy-efficient microscopic memory chips and sensors, or it could be woven into clothing.

Other materials that share these properties are hard materials but contain toxic or rare metals like lead or niobium.
