Researchers develop hybrid kiri-origami structures that enable the fabrication of high-performance stretchable electronics using non-stretchable materials
Stretchable electronics have broad applications, including wearable sensors and curved displays. However, the electronic performance of stretchable materials is poor in comparison to non-stretchable rigid electronic materials.
In a new study, researchers have developed a new technique, using kiri-origami structures, that combines the benefits of both origami and kirigami to achieve stretchable devices with high-performance non-stretchable materials.
This innovative technique can lead to the development of advanced stretchable electronic devices. Stretchable electronics are used in smartphones, smartwatches, curved displays, and wearable sensors.
