Customizable assembly of free-standing integrated electronics for wearables by phase separation

Chem Commun (Camb). 2022 Dec 1;58(96):13341-13344. doi: 10.1039/d2cc05043a.

Abstract

The non-solvent induced phase separation method is utilized to produce a free-standing electrode with good conductivity retention during 1000 bending/stretching cycles. The as-prepared electrode has been fabricated for an integrated device consisting of an ethanol fuel cell, a supercapacitor and a motion sensor. This method for fabricating free-standing electronics reveals a cost-effective approach towards wearable devices.
