This document provides an overview of transient electronics. Transient electronics uses materials that are capable of disappearing after a period of stable operation. Current research is exploring using transient materials like silicon, zinc oxide, magnesium, and silk to create devices like transistors, resistors, and diodes that can fully dissolve over time. These transient devices have applications in healthcare, the military, and to reduce electronic waste. Advantages include being eco-friendly and reducing unwanted electronics, while disadvantages are limited size and customization needs. The future of transient electronics is promising for enhancing quality of life while minimizing environmental impact.
