‘Stretchable’ and 'curvilnear' seem to key words changing recently from flexible and planar in the field of flexible electronics because handy electronic devices and biomedical implantable devices need to be mechanically more flexible and geometrically more complex. In this presentation, I will discuss unusual strategies to deal with fragile electronic elements to create flexible, compressible/stretchable, and curvilinear electronic devices. As an example, I will present results on the first camera that exploits designs based on the human eye, to provide a wide angle field of view and low aberrations with simple imaging optics. The approach exploits silicon nanomaterials in stretchable configurations to accomplish an elastic geometry transformation from the planar layouts to the curvilinear ones. I will summarize the basic materials science and mechanics of these approaches, as well as the performance and imaging characteristics of the resulting devices. |
