Abstract

SUMMARY Advances in flexible and stretchable electronics have enabled an unprecedented level of coupling between electronics and bio-tissues by overcoming obstacles associated with the bio-tissues’ curvilin-earity, softness, deformability, and wetness. This review begins by detailing the outstanding challenges in achieving body-conformable electronics stemming from the disparate properties of bio-tissues and man-made materials and the complexity of their interfaces. Given tissue properties, an existing mechanics model has revealed how device softness and interfacial adhesion govern the bio-elec-tronics conformability. Therefore, we first summarize methods for improving the mechanical compliance of electronics through both material engineering and structural design. Then, we discuss strategies to enhance bio-electronics adhesion in both dry and wet environments. We point out that innovative bio-electronics integration procedures also have a significant impact on bio-electronics conformability. We conclude by providing an outlook into future opportunities and proposing a holistic approach to strategizing body-conformable electronics. outline state-of-the-art material engineering and structure designs to make electronics compatible with the softness and deformability of bio-tissues. Second, we review recent progress in bio-electronic interface adhesives under both dry and wet conditions. Third, a variety of emerging bio-integration methods are summarized. Toward the end, we discuss the remaining challenges and promising solutions in body-conformable electronics. Finally, we offer a holistic perspective for engineering body-conformable electronics. innovative methods developed for the 3D deployment of soft electronics to spatially couple with bio-tissues. Examples include the syringe-injectable, deep-brain-moni-toring electrode mesh 174 and the implantation of stretchable nanoelectronics via organogenesis. 175 More discussions on 3D bio-electronics integration can be found in two recent reviews. 20,176

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
