Large‐Scale Ultra‐Robust MoS ₂ Patterns Directly Synthesized on Polymer Substrate for Flexible Sensing Electronics (Adv. Mater. 8/2023)

Metastable polymer substrate for transient electronics

Transient electronics are designed to operate for programmed life times and then degrade leaving little to no trace behind. The initial work on transient electronics has been focused on biomedical applications in which the electronics are implanted, but eventually degrade and resorb into the body after the treatment is complete [1]. Biomedical transient electronics typically use a water soluble...

Reversible wrinkles of monolayer graphene on a polymer substrate: toward stretchable and flexible electronics.

The surface instability of monolayer graphene supported by a soft (polymer) substrate under equal-biaxial compression has been explored through large scale coarse-grained molecular simulations. Regardless of the interfacial adhesion strength between the graphene and the substrate, herringbone wrinkles have always been observed due to their lowest energy status, compared with the checkerboard, h...

Polymer-metal hybrid transparent electrodes for flexible electronics

Despite nearly two decades of research, the absence of ideal flexible and transparent electrodes has been the largest obstacle in realizing flexible and printable electronics for future technologies. Here we report the fabrication of 'polymer-metal hybrid electrodes' with high-performance properties, including a bending radius <1 mm, a visible-range transmittance>95% and a sheet resistance <10 ...
