Molecular-Scale Geometric Design: Zigzag-Structured Intrinsically Stretchable Polymer Semiconductors

Orienting intelligence and multifunction, stretchable semiconductors are of great significance in constructing next-generation human-friendly wearable electronic devices. Nevertheless, rendering semiconducting polymers mechanical stretchability without compromising intrinsic electrical performance remains a major challenge. Combining geometry-innovated inorganic systems and structure-tailored organic semiconductors, a molecular-scale geometric design strategy is proposed to obtain high-performance intrinsically stretchable polymer semiconductors. Originating from the linear regioregular conjugated polymer and corresponding
