Abstract

Recent advances in mechanics and materials provide routes to integrated circuits that offer the electrical properties of conventional, rigid wafer-based technologies but with the ability to be stretched, compressed, twisted, bent and deformed into arbitrary, curvilinear shapes. This paper summarizes developments in this emerging field, with descriptions of application opportunities, fundamental aspects, representative devices, and particularly the effect of plastic deformation.
