Special Issue on Flexible Electronics Technology, Part II: Materials and Devices

Presents an introduction to a special issue of Proceedings of the IEEE. Flexible electronics is entering an exciting phase in the technology development cycle. After a decade of fundamental materials and device research, we are now witnessing the first major push toward commercialization. Productization requires device architectures and materials processes that are reliable and suitably qualified for high volume manufacturing. While the focus of the July issue of the Proceedings of the IEEE was on electronic systems and applications, the theme of the current issue is on materials and device technology, process development, and manufacturing technology. The fifteen papers in this issue provide a good overview of the status of flexible electronic materials and manufacturing technology.
