Abstract
Flexible electronics have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their potential for applications in various fields, including wearable devices, healthcare, flexible displays, and energy harvesting systems. These electronic devices are typically based on materials that offer mechanical flexibility while maintaining excellent electrical conductivity and other essential properties. This article provides an overview of current developments in the materials used for flexible electronics, focusing on organic semiconductors, conductive polymers, and nanomaterials. The challenges that hinder the widespread adoption of flexible electronics, such as material stability, performance consistency, and large-scale fabrication, are also discussed. Finally, future trends and potential solutions to overcome these challenges are explored, aiming to drive the next generation of flexible electronic technologies.
