Abstract

Flexible electronics, also known as flex circuits, is a technology for assembling electronic circuits by mounting electronic devices on flexible plastic substrates. Flexible electronics based upon organic and inorganic nano-structured materials have the identical features required for IoT. In this paper the recent progress in research and the future prospects of flexible electronics is discussed then key technologies, including flexible RFID, sensor, memory and display technologies are also described in detail. The paper will also focus on future scope and applications of these fantastic materials
