Abstract

A simple strategy for changing a brittle conducting polymer (

Pedot: PSS) into a solution-processed highly deformable viscoelastic polymer is presented. Rapid self-healing of conductivity, customer-designed LEDs with complex micro-patterns, and foldable stretchable LEDs are demonstrated.

Keywords: PEDOT:PSS; deformable devices; stretchable conducting polymers; stretchable electronics; viscoelasticity.
