Stretchable and conductive fibers fabricated by a continuous method for wearable devices

Stretchable and conductive fibers are building blocks for the development of a wide range wearable stretchable electronics owing to their small size, light weight, omnidirectional pliability elasticity, outstanding integration ability. Despite large number reports in past decade, there is lack continuous scalable approach manufacturing with sufficient strength, conductivity, durability. Here we report high-throughput fabrication method based on multimaterial thermal drawing chemical deposition processes produce highly fibers, which suitable being twisted into textile yarns, woven knitted fabrics, or braided stitched onto structures. We demonstrate assembly these breathable, machine-washable, devices body motion detection, electrothermal therapy, electrocardiograph signal detection.
