摘要

This review summarizes molecular/structural design strategies for intrinsically stretchable organic optoelectronics and discusses their integration and potential in human-machine interfaces

neuromorphic electronics

and wearable health monitoring.

Abstract

The rapid development of the Internet of Things and wearable technologies has created substantial demand for stretchable optoelectronic devices. Among these

intrinsically stretchable organic optoelectronic devices are emerging as key technologies for applications in wearable electronics

electronic skin

and health monitoring. This review systematically summarizes the recent progress in this field. We first outline two primary strategies for achieving stretchability: structural engineering (buckling and island-bridge configurations) and intrinsic material design. The review focuses on the latter

providing a comprehensive overview of the design of key components

including insulators

electrodes

and optoelectronic functional layers. Specifically

the design principles for intrinsically stretchable semiconductor active layers are elaborated with a focus on molecular engineering and composite material strategies. Furthermore

we summarize the performance optimization and applications of representative devices

such as organic photodiodes (OPDs)

organic phototransistors (OPTs)

organic photovoltaics (OPVs)

organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs)

and organic light-emitting electrochemical cells (OLECs). The potential of these devices for integrated systems

including human-machine interaction

neuromorphic electronics

and wearable health monitors

is also explored. Finally

the current challenges and future research directions are discussed.
