Polymer light‐emitting devices are fabricated using single‐walled carbon nanotube‐polymer composite electrodes as both the electron and hole injection electrodes. The devices are metal‐free and can be linearly stretched up to 45% strain. This represents a proof‐of‐concept, highly stretchable semiconductor device wherein every part of the device is intrinsically stretchable.
