The gallium-based liquid metals are extremely soft and retains electrical conductivity under large strains due to fluidic nature. The metallic conductivity of these electrodes could be utilized for multiple purposes, such as embedded stretchable antennas, shape memory ability and interconnects. Liquid metals can also be patterned within soft materials in unique ways, such as injection into microchannels, vacuum filling into capillary networks, and 3D printing. Thus, the use of liquid metals has exciting implications for ultra-stretchable and soft devices that can take advantage of the high deformability and stretchable conductivity. This presentation describes recent efforts to control the shape and function of liquid metals for applications in soft and stretchable electronics. |
