We present a highly conformable, stretchable, and transparent electrode for application in epidermal electronics based on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and Ag nanowire (AgNW) networks. With the addition of a small amount of a commercially available nonionic surfactant, Triton X, PDMS became highly adhesive and mechanically compliant, key factors for the development of conformable and stretchable substrates. The polar functional groups present in Triton X interacted with the Pt catalyst present in

Self-powered sensors have attracted significant interest for individual wearable device operation. Here, transparent and wearable single-electrode triboelectric nanogenerators (SETENGs) with high power generation are created using electrospun Ag nanowires (AgNWs)/poly(vinylidenefluoride-cotrifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] composite nanofibers (NFs). The SETENGs generate an output power density of up to 217 W/m² with repetitive contact and separation from the surface of a latex glove. I

We present a new concept for a wearable oxygen (O₂) sensor for transcutaneous O₂ pressure (tcpO₂) monitoring by combining the technologies of luminescent gas sensing and wearable devices. O₂ monitoring has been exhaustively studied given its central role in diagnosing various diseases. The ability to quantify the physiological distribution and real-time dynamics of O₂ from the subcellular to the macroscopic level is required to fully underst

Wearable electronic medical devices measuring continuous biological signals for early disease diagnosis should be small and lightweight for consecutive usability. As a result, there has been an increasing need for new energy supply systems that provide continuous power without any interruption to the operation of the medical devices associated with the use of conventional batteries. In this work, we developed a patch-type self-charging supercapacitor that can measure biological signals with a co

ABSTRACT Highly stretchable transparent conductors where Ag nanowire networks (AgNWs) are reliably embedded into a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate are presented. In spite of the weak physical and chemical interaction between Ag nanowires and PDMS, a significantly high transfer efficiency and uniform embedding of AgNW percolation mesh electrodes into PDMS was achieved by simply coating aerogels onto the AgNWs and using water‐assisted transfer. By the failure‐free transfer and reliable bondi

Intrinsically stretchable light-emitting diodes (LEDs) will be critical components in future stretchable electronics. However, limited research has been conducted on stretchable electroluminescent (EL) layers for LED devices. Blending conjugated polymers (CPs) with an elastomer has been a simple and effective method enabling widespread use of stretchable polymer semiconductors in stretchable field-effect transistors (FETs). In this study, we adopted the concept of blending elastomers into CPs fo

With the evolution of semiconducting industries, thermomechanical failure induced in a multilayered structure with a high aspect ratio during manufacturing and operation has become one of the critical reliability issues. In this work, the effect of thermomechanical stress on the failure of multilayered thin films on Si substrates was studied using analytical calculations and various thermomechanical tests. The residual stress induced during material processing was calculated based on plate bendi
