Unbreakable material to be used in phones

The Foundation for Fundamental Research on Matter (FOM) doctoral candidate has proposed a way to make mobile phones and other personal electronics more strong, resilient, and much less likely to break when dropped. This will really turn to be helpful in the case of very careless people.

The plastic will be be like the above one with a polymer having a relatively fixed ladder-like structure. The key to improving mobile devices ability to survive a fall, according to Prins as mentioned in the Physical Review Letters, is to manufacture semiconductors made from plastic rather than silicon.

She also proved her point by bombarding the new polymers with electrons from a particle accelerator, and recorded the material
