Progress in electronics gave rise to the concept of flexible electronics. Which are widely being used for medical and aerospace research. Further development in the fields of flexible electronics unfolded another branch of this electronics system called organic flexible electronics. Organic thin-film transistors, Organic light-emitting diodes are a few of the many forms of organic flexible electronics. Organic materials being used as the substrates increase the flexibility of the electronic circuit. The conductivity of these substrates can be controlled as per requirement by varying the doping concentration of the substrate. The cost of production of organic flexible electronics is low as compared to electronics circuits using a silicon substrate. This paper illustrates the various properties of organic materials and their applications and suitability in flexible electronics.
