Abstract

In this contribution, results on technology developments are presented aiming to realize conformable electronic systems based on plastic electronics technologies. Focus of the developments is on low cost with an acceptable reliability in function of the end-application. The feasibility of this technology is demonstrated by digging into the different process steps and their characteristics. A number of demonstrators (large-area conformable illumination tiles) have been realized and are discussed. The major part of this contribution is on the mechanical characterization of these plastic electronics based technologies.
