Flexible/stretchable electronics and displays have become the core technologies for future portable and wearable electronics due to its flexibility and light weight. Most of flexible electronics and display are built on the heat sensitive plastics substrates which is usually not well compatible with conventional photolithography processes that usually use high temperature and corrosive etchants. Therefore, there is a strong need to develop a novel low temperature process to realize flexible electronics and display on the conventional heat sensitive polymer substrate materials. In this paper, the recent development for the low temperature process compatible with plastic substrate will be reviewed in both materials and process aspects. Furthermore, very recent trends in stretchable electronics and transparent electronics will be discussed as well.
