DESCRIPTION:Recent advances in mechanics and materials provide routes to i
 ntegrated circuits that can offer the electrical properties of conventiona
 l\, rigid wafer-based technologies but with the ability to be stretched\, 
 compressed\, twisted\, bent and deformed into arbitrary shapes.  Inorganic
  electronic materials in micro/nanostructured forms\, intimately integrate
 d with elastomeric substrates offer particularly attractive characteristic
 s in such systems\, with realistic pathways to sophisticated embodiments. 
  Mechanics plays a key role in this development by identifying the underly
 ing mechanism and providing analytical solutions to guide design and fabri
 cation.  I will present our research on the enabling technology (transfer 
 printing [1]) and materials (stretchable silicon\, [2\,3]\, interconnect [
 4])\, and their applications to stretchable and foldable circuits [5]\, el
 ectronic-eye camera [6\,7]\, solar cell [8]\, semi-transparent and flexibl
 e LED [9] and its application to medicine [10]\, neural [11] and cardiac s
 ensors [12]\, cardiac ablation therapy [13]\, epidermal electronics [14] w
 ith applications to human skin [15]\, flexible electrode array for mapping
  brain activity in vivo [16\,17]\, dissolvable electronics [18]\, carbon n
 anotubes [19]\, battery [20]\, pressure sensor [21]\, antenna [22]\, and i
 njectable\, cellular-scale optoelectronics [23].  Review of stretchable el
 ectronics has been published [24].\n	\n1. Meitl et al.\, Nature Materials
