“…Field-effect transistors, p-n diodes, and other devices for electronic circuits can be directly integrated into the wavy Si to yield fully stretchable components. Integrated electronics that use such components could be important for devices such as flexible displays (Crawford, 2005), eye-like digital cameras (Jin et al, 2004), conformable skin sensors (Lumelsky et al, 2001), intelligent surgical gloves (Someya et al, 2004), and structural health monitoring devices (Nathan et al, 2000).…”

A finite-deformation theory is developed to study the mechanics of thin buckled films on compliant substrates. Perturbation analysis is performed for this highly nonlinear system to obtain the analytical solution. The results agree well with experiments and finite element analysis in wavelength and amplitude. In particular, it is found that the wavelength depends on the strain. Based on the accurate wavelength and amplitude, the membrane and peak strains in thin films, and stretchability and compressibility of the system are also obtained analytically.

“…Flexible electronics gain more interest in medical sectors because they offer more comfort, while being in contact with patients [ 58 ]. In the early 2000s, Nathan et al [ 59 ] already reported on the use of large-area flexible electronics for large area X-ray imaging. They produced thin-film electronics on flexible polymer substrates.…”

Flexible electronics is a rapidly growing technology for a multitude of applications. Wearables and flexible displays are some application examples. Various technologies and processes are used to produce flexible electronics. An important aspect to be considered when developing these systems is their reliability, especially with regard to repeated bending. In this paper, the frequently used methods for investigating the bending reliability of flexible electronics are presented. This is done to provide an overview of the types of tests that can be performed to investigate the bending reliability. Furthermore, it is shown which devices are developed and optimized to gain more knowledge about the behavior of flexible systems under bending. Both static and dynamic bending test methods are presented.

“…9 Some time later, research groups at Princeton University 11 and North Carolina State University 31 described similar results, the latter even using PET at 110 C. Recently such devices have been integrated into xray detector systems. 32 At the same time, work has been progressing on creating polycrystalline silicon TFTs on plastic, using laser recrystallization techniques to lower the process temperature. 14,33,34 Metal foil can also be processed roll-to-roll, as has been mentioned in connection with ECD and its amorphous silicon solar cells.…”

The development and current status of roll-to-roll manufacturing processes and equipment relevant to the fabrication of patterned, active electronic devices such as thin film transistors (TFTs) is reviewed, along with a survey of the knowledge of processing for thin film electronics on flexible (especially polymer) substrates. It is concluded that while there are a number of unknowns and engineering challenges, there is no fundamental obstacle to the implementation of such processes, which will have profound value in production cost and product characteristics. The first amorphous silicon TFT made with roll-to-roll processing is reported.
