TL;DR: A design concept for stretchable semiconducting polymers, which involves introducing chemical moieties to promote dynamic non-covalent crosslinking of the conjugated polymers that is able to undergo an energy dissipation mechanism through breakage of bonds when strain is applied, while retaining high charge transport abilities is presented.

TL;DR: Flexible organic electronics are used to mimic the functions of a biological afferent nerve and construct a hybrid bioelectronic reflex arc to actuate muscles that has potential applications in neurorobotics and neuroprosthetics.

TL;DR: The increased polymer chain dynamics under nanoconfinement significantly reduces the modulus of the conjugated polymer and largely delays the onset of crack formation under strain, and the fabricated semiconducting film can be stretched up to 100% strain without affecting mobility, retaining values comparable to that of amorphous silicon.

TL;DR: Self-reconstruction of conducting nanostructures assisted by a dynamically crosslinked polymer network enables the fabrication of autonomous self-healable and stretchable multi-component electronic skin, paving the way for future robust electronics.

TL;DR: A new class of polymeric material crosslinked through rationally designed multistrength hydrogen bonding interactions is reported, which realizes exceptional mechanical properties such as notch-insensitive high stretchability, high toughness, and autonomous self-healing even in artificial sweat.
