title: All-Printed, Foldable Organic Thin-Film Transistors on Glassine Paper.
abstract: All-printed, foldable organic thin-film transistors are demonstrated on glassine paper with a combination of advanced materials and processing techniques. Glassine paper provides a suitable surface for high-performance printing methods, while graphene electrodes and an ion-gel gate dielectric enable robust stability over 100 folding cycles. Altogether, this study features a practical platform for low-cost, large-area, and foldable electronics.
