Biomimicking Topographic Elastomeric Petals (E‐Petals) for Omnidirectional Stretchable and Printable Electronics

Abstract

are new versatile substrates for stretchable and printable electronics. Compared with conventional flat polydimethylsiloxane substrates, elastomeric petals have biomimicking topographic surfaces that can effectively inhibit the propagation of microcracks formed in the conducting layer, which is deposited on top, regardless of the type of conductive materials and the deposition methods.
