Patent ID: 8905772

Claim:
A stretchable and foldable multilayer electronic device, comprising: a substrate; an isolation layer disposed on a portion of the substrate; a functional layer comprising: at least one device island; and at least one stretchable interconnect coupled to the at least one device island; wherein at least a portion of the device island is in physical communication with the isolation layer; and wherein at least a portion of the stretchable interconnect is not in physical communication with the isolation layer; one or more neutral mechanical surface adjusting layers; and one or more encapsulating layers disposed over the at least one device island, wherein at least one of said one or more neutral mechanical surface adjusting layers is disposed over said functional layer, wherein at least one of said one or more neutral mechanical surface adjusting layers of said multilayer electronic device has a property that is spatially inhomogeneous relative to a location in said multilayer electronic device.
