Abstract: Flexible electronics is a new trend in the electronics industry for dealing with the increasing chip burden. It is a technology in which electronic circuits are assembled by mounting electronic devices on flexible plastic substrates. Increasingly, this technology is being used in a number of applications that benefit from their light weight, favorable dielectric properties, robust, high circuit density and conforming nature. If not required, flexible circuits can be rolled away Plastic substrates have to offer properties such as clarity, dimensional stability, low thermal expansion coefficient, elasticity etc. to replace glass. Recent advances in organic and inorganic based electronics are based on flexible substrates, offering substantial rewards for developing displays that are thinner, lighter and can be rolled when not in use Thin-film electronics in its myriad forms has underpinned much of the technological innovation over the past four decades in the fields of displays, sensors and energy conversion. This technology forms also the basis for flexible electronics. Here they review the current status of flexible electronics and try to predict the future promise in healthcare, environmental monitoring, display and human-machine interactivity, energy conversion, management and storage, and communication and wireless networks of these pervading technologies.
