Geometry and design for conformal electronics
A method of forming a three-dimensional electronic device includes forming at least one electronic device on a two-dimensional, flexible substrate, the electronic device being formed according to a three-dimensional structure, cutting the two-dimensional, flexible substrate, the cuts being located to allow the two-dimensional substrate to be shaped, the cuts having at least one stress relief feature, and shaping the two-dimensional, flexible substrate to form the three-dimensional structure, the stress relief features arranged to alleviate stress in the three-dimensional structure. A method of forming a three-dimensional electronic device includes forming at least one electronic device on a two-dimensional, flexible substrate, the electronic device being formed according to a three-dimensional structure, cutting the two-dimensional, flexible substrate, the cuts being arranged to as to increase a radius of curvature to meet a stress relief parameter when the substrate is shaped, and shaping the two-dimensional, flexible substrate to form the three-dimensional structure. A three-dimensional electronic device having an electronic device formed on a flexible substrate, the flexible substrate formed into a three-dimensional structure, wedged-shaped portions removed from the substrate to allow the substrate to be formed into the three-dimensional structure, and a stress relief feature arranged adjacent to the wedge-shaped portions.
