Graphene-based flexible electronic devices

[Display omitted] Flexible electronic devices fabricated on plastic substrate are more desirable than rigid counterparts for future displays, lightings, or solar cells. For flexible electronics to become practical, the indium-tin-oxide (ITO) electrode should be replaced due to its brittleness, increasing cost, and chemical instability. Graphene has emerged as a promising material for flexible transparent conducting electrodes because of its unique electronic and mechanical properties with high optical transmittance. Therefore, graphene has been widely used in flexible electronic devices including light-emitting diodes (LEDs), solar cells (SCs), and field-effect transistors (FETs). However, for practical applications of graphene in flexible electronics, its limitations should also be overcome. This review describes the use of graphene in LEDs, SCs and FETs, and various strategies to overcome the deficiencies of graphene to obtain highly-efficient and stable flexible electronics. Finally, we present future prospects and suggest further directions for research on graphene-based flexible electronic devices.
