These mushroom computer chips can withstand extreme temperatures, resist repeated bending, and integrate with soil completely.

discovery. They figured out how to create computer chips using fungi, and they’re biodegradable, eco-friendly, and durable.

The team injected Reishi spores into moist beech wood shavings. Afterward, they covered the spores with polyethylene separator grids and stored them at 25 degrees Celsius. In other words, they turned these solid metals into gases that solidified on the mushroom skin. Then, the researchers surgically removed it with a laser to create circuit pathways.

They lose 93% of their dry mass within 11 days, and the residue is indistinguishable from regular soil. Also, Physics World says fungi circuits can withstand 2,000 bending cycles before their metal films crack and war.That means we can shape them multiple times to suit new applications. Also, it can repel moisture and ultraviolet light, enabling it to last for hundreds of years.
