Status overview: Fabrication, characterization and modeling of flexible RF/microwave nanoelectronics

Flexible nanoelectronics have drawn increasing attention over the past few years, for their unique properties such as bendable, reliable or foldable, can conformai attached to any shape of surfaces, light weight, etc. The device speed of flexible nanoelectronics has been increasing and reached RF/microwave regime as new fabrication/design techniques are developed. In order to provide design guidelines of employing these fast flexible nanoelectronics for flexible microwave monolithic integrated systems, characterization and modeling works have been conducted. This paper briefly reviews the recent development on fabrication, characterization and modeling for flexible RF/microwave nanoelectronics.
