Abstract:
1. A stretchable electronic circuit comprising: a flexible substrate; an electronic circuit comprising at least one stretchable semiconductor structure, the electronic circuit being supported by the surface of the flexible substrate; and an encapsulating layer or coating, the encapsulating layer or coating comprising an additive, the additive comprising at least one of a fiber, paper, foil, a structural enhancer or a filler; wherein the encapsulating layer or coating at least partially encapsulates the at least one stretchable semiconductor structure; wherein the at least partially embedded portion of the electronic circuit comprises the at least one stretchable semiconductor structure; wherein the at least one stretchable semiconductor structure has a curved internal surface that provides stretchability to isolate the electronic circuit from an applied strain; and wherein the encapsulating layer or coating modifies the range of stretchability of the at least one stretchable semiconductor structure.
