In an effort to create a truly flexible and wearable display having a flexible battery as well as a flexible organic light‐emitting diode panel and a flexible printed circuit, a flexible lithium‐ion battery has been developed, and a prototype wrist‐wearable or arm‐wearable display has been fabricated. Owing to improvements in the internal structure and exterior of the lithium‐ion battery, no remarkable changes in charge and discharge curves and the internal state of the electrodes were observed even after conducting a 10,000‐cycle bending test. Therefore, this flexible lithium‐ion battery prototype demonstrated remarkable bending resistance. Thus, we succeeded in fabricating a truly flexible and wearable display comprised of a flexible organic light‐emitting diode panel, a flexible printed circuit, and a flexible battery.
To fabricate a genuinely flexible and wearable display with a flexible battery together with a flexible OLED panel and a flexible printed circuit, a flexible lithium ion battery has been developed, and a prototype of a wrist-wearable display has been fabricated.
