New stretchable electrode enables high-performance flexible electronics

Flexible electronics have emerged as a transformative technology, promising to revolutionize how we interact with devices and integrate them into our daily lives. The ability to bend, stretch, and conform to irregular surfaces opens up possibilities for wearable health monitors, foldable displays, and energy-harvesting systems that seamlessly blend with the human body or adapt to dynamic environments. However, creating electronic components that can withstand repeated deformation while maintaining consistent performance has posed significant challenges.
