Abstract

A flexible electronic, Radio Frequency Identification (RF ID) or display device and methods of making the same. The flexible electronic, Radio Frequency Identification (RF ID) or display device comprises a flexible substrate having a top surface and a bottom surface. The top surface comprises electrical components. The flexible substrate comprises openings cutting therethrough from the top surface to the bottom surface. A conductive layer is coupled to the flexible substrate wherein the openings expose at least a portion of the conductive layer. The openings are filled with conductive elements to make first electrical contacts to at least a portion of the conductive layer and second electrical contacts to the electrical components on the flexible substrate.
