A simple strategy for changing a brittle conducting polymer (PEDOT:PSS) into a solution‐processed highly deformable viscoelastic polymer is presented by H.‐K. Baik, U. Jeong, and co‐workers on page 4455. The storage modulus versus loss modulus of the polymer is adjusted to control the viscoelastic properties to fit the properties required in deformable electronics. Rapid self‐healing of conductivity, custom‐designed LEDs with complex micropatterns, and foldable stretchable LEDs are demonstrated.
