Printing Completely Conformal Liquid Metal Circuits on Arbitrary Curved Surfaces via Customized Conformal Mask

Abstract

Conformal Electronics

In article number 2400220, Shuo Zhang, Yuhang Li, and co-workers introduce a facile approach to print completely conformal liquid metal circuits on arbitrary curved surfaces by a conformally attached 3D-printed customized conformal mask (CCM). Via CCM, conformal liquid metal circuits can be printed on the complex surfaces of aircraft, serving as intelligent skin. This work offers fabrication strategy for arbitrary curved surface conformal electronics in aeronautics and wearable devices.
