A Laminating Strategy to Manyfold Enhance the Elastic Stretchability of Stretchable Electronics

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
We propose a laminating strategy that laminates a thick‐polymer layer onto the thin‐ribbon metallic structure. Using serpentine structures on soft and hard substrates as representative cases, this approach increases elastic stretchability by 3.5‐fold and 2.3‐fold.

Heavy species dynamics in high power impulse magnetron sputtering discharges

, 2019
The energy and the composition of the film forming species strongly influence the properties of the films being deposited. In HiPIMS, the film forming material consists of neutral atoms sputtered off the target and its ions.

Effect of magnetron configuration on the spatial distribution of sputtered species in high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) plasmas

Vacuum
This study examines the two-dimensional (2D) spatial distribution of the ionized flux fraction (IFF) and total flux of sputtered species in a non-reactive high-power impulse magnetron sputtering discharge for a peak current density of ≈1.3 A/cm2. Five magnetic configurations of the magnetron cathode, ranging from highly unbalanced to highly balanced ...

Plasma diagnosis of reactive high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) discharges [PDF]

, 2014
Reactive HiPIMS discharges have been investigated by employing a selection of plasma diagnostic techniques. Plasma dynamics in a reactive HiPIMS discharge were studied by means of a single Langmuir probe which revealed electron and positive ion densities of the order of 10^17 to 10^18 m^-3 in typical substrate positions, the temporal evolutions of ...
