Ductility of metal thin films in flexible electronics

【摘要】 Flexible, large area electronics using various organic and inorganic materials are beginning to show great promise. During manufacture and service, large deforma- tion of these hybrid materials will pose significant challenges in terms of high performance and reliability. A deep understanding of the ductility or flexibility of macroelectronics becomes one of the major issues that must be addressed ur- gently. This paper describes the current level of understanding on the thin-film ductility, both free-standing and substrate-supported, and relevant influencing factors.更多还原
