Theoretical and Experimental Studies of Bending of Inorganic Electronic Materials on Plastic Substrates

Abstract: This paper describes materials and mechanics aspects of bending in systems consisting of ribbons and bars of single crystalline silicon supported by sheets of plastic. The combined experimental and theoretical results provide an understanding for the essential behaviors and for mechanisms associated with layouts that achieve maximum bendability. Examples of highly bendable silicon devices on plastic illustrate some of these concepts. Although the studies presented here focus on ribbons and bars of silicon, the… Show more

“…This instability is suggest to be fixed by defects, such as ripples or grain boundaries, which do not allow these waves by limiting the size [41][42][43]. Furthermore, we found tensile strain can suppress such instability near Γ, which can be easily applied to monolayer materials [44,45]. As an example, in Fig.…”

“…1(d), the local deformation in the bent Si membrane is considered to increase linearly with the distance from the central neutral mechanical plane, which itself remains unstrained (tensile strain towards the outside and compressive towards the inside). 32,33 Hence, the distinct fracture radii for the samples prepared on 50 and 100 lm thick Si membranes are attributed to the different strain levels at the surfaces of the substrates at a given bending radius-(only half the value for the thinner samples. As the thickness of the support increases, the fracture strain at the outer surface is reached already at a larger bending radius.…”

“…Tandem OLEDs with 4LG anodes maintained nearly the same current density for a bending strain of up to~6.7% that corresponds to a 1.5 mm bending radius of curvature ( Figure 5b); a rollable display, which represents the ultimate form of flexible displays, requires a 5-10 mm bending radius of curvature, which is easily achievable in our flexible OLEDs. 49 This result demonstrates the excellent mechanical flexibility of tandem OLEDs with the 4LG anode relative to the external bending stress. In addition, we used the thin PET substrate (thickness:~50 μm) to observe the excellent flexibility of tandem OLEDs with the 4LG anode.…”
