Abstract
Disclosed herein is an efficient fabrication approach to create highly customizable wearable electronics through rapid laser machining and adhesion-controlled soft materials assembly. Well-aligned, multi-layered materials can be created from 2D and 3D elements that stretch and bend while seamlessly integrating with rigid components such as microchip integrated circuits (IC), discrete electrical components, and interconnects. These techniques are applied using commercially available materials. These materials and methods enable custom wearable electronics while offering versatility in design and functionality for a variety of bio-monitoring applications.
