STRETCHABLE/CONFORMABLE ELECTRONIC AND OPTOELECTRONIC CIRCUITS, METHODS, AND APPLICATIONS

摘要

A fabrication method for stretchable/conformable electronic and optoelectronic circuits and the resulting circuits. The method may utilize a variety of electronic materials including, but not limited to Silicon, GaAs, InSb, PbSe, CdTe, organic semiconductors, metal oxide semiconductors and related alloys or hybrid combinations of the aforementioned materials. While a wide range of fabricated electronic/optoelectronic devices, circuits, and systems could be manufactured using the embodied technology, a hemispherical image sensor is an exemplary advantageous optoelectronic device that is enabled by this technology. Other applications include but are not limited to wearable electronics, flexible devices for the internet-of-things, and advanced imaging systems.
