MUMBAI, India, June 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411093540 A) filed by Lovely Professional University on November 29, 2024, for Autonomous Self-Healing Electronic Circuit System Using Nanotechnology For Real-Time Fault Detection And Repair.

Inventors include Dr. Irfan Ahmad Pindoo; and Dr. Mohd Tanveer Khan.

The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.

Abstract: This invention relates to a self-healing electronic circuit leveraging nanotechnology to autonomously detect and repair disruptions in real-time, enhancing reliability and durability in critical applications. The circuit comprises nanosensors that monitor electrical integrity, triggering repair upon detecting resistance changes. Microcapsules filled with conductive fluid, a realigning nanofiber mesh, and thermal-activated materials are embedded within the circuit to ensure rapid, localized repair. A graphene- based layer enhances conductivity and environmental resilience, while a real-time diagnostics system continuously analyzes resistance, temperature, and signal integrity. The circuit also incorporates micro-reservoirs, smart polymers, and adaptable repair mechanisms suited to flexible electronics and high-density applications. These features collectively enable the circuit to restore functionality without external intervention, adapting to various environmental conditions. This self-healing circuit technology extends the operational lifespan of electronic devices, making it ideal for industries requiring consistent uptime, such as aerospace, medical, and consumer electronics.
