Stretchable electrodes are reviewed by C. Yan and P. S. Lee on page 3443. The key innovative feature for stretchable energy storage devices is that the device is made of soft electrodes and can be deformed into various shapes without affecting the performance. The schematic illustration in the image shows the stretched hexagonal mesh of graphene layers. Such innovative stretchable devices can open up unprecedented applications in future wearable electronics.
