Abstract

Abstract: The latest research in soft electronics reveals a substantial demand for devices that can fold, bend and stretch to suit the requirements of technological advances. Cellulose, silk, and elastomers are employed in making biodegradable, environmentally benign substrates that accommodate nanofibers, nanoparticles, nanotubes, graphene, and biomaterials in their nano-form. Flexible materials can hold circuits and sensors and can substitute conventional substrates. Transient electronics, e-skin, and biosensors are the most sought-after in medical technology, sensors, energy storage devices, and wearables. These stretchable materials lead the way for developing eco-friendly and sustainable technology to attain sustainable development goals. This research work discusses nano species imbibed in printable and flexible electronics. An analysis of the documents extracted from the Scopus database using VOSviewer and patents in the domain of flexible electronics are presented along with altmetrics.
