Abstract

Abstract Flexible electronics have suggested tremendous potential to shape human lives for more convenience and pleasure. Strenuous efforts have been devoted to developing flexible organic field-effect transistor (FOFET) technologies for rollable displays, bendable smart cards, flexible sensors and artificial skins. However, these applications are still in a nascent stage for lack of standard high-performance material stacks as well as mature manufacturing technologies. In this review, the material choice and device design for FOFET devices and circuits, as well as the demonstrated applications are summarized in detail. Moreover, the technical challenges and potential applications of FOFETs in the future are…
