This study presents a novel method for fabricating flexible and stretchable devices by integrating a kirigami sheet with an elastomer. Patterned electrodes are achieved using a printing technique on the flat kirigami sheet, and the integration with elastomers is realized by placing a liquid elastomer on the three-dimensional structure. A biaxially stretchable light-emitting device is successfully fabricated using this method.
The demand for flexible and stretchable devices has been increasing in multiple fields, such as healthcare, energy harvesting, and artificial intelligence. In this study, we report a novel method to fabricate flexible and stretchable devices by integrating a kirigami sheet with an elastomer, both stretchable. Owing to the flatness of the kirigami sheet under no stress, electrodes can be patterned using a printing technique, which can enable large size and mass production. Kirigami sheets form three-dimensional shapes under stress/strain. The integration of kirigami and elastomers is carried out by placing a liquid elastomer on the three-dimensional structure. A biaxially stretchable light-emitting device was fabricated by patterning the electrode on a kirigami sheet and placing a light-emitting elastomer on top of it. This study reports the fabrication method, fabricated device on activation, and stretchability. (C) 2022 Author(s).
