Stretchable Conductive Ink Based on Polysiloxane-Silver Composite and Its Application as a Frequency Reconfigurable Patch Antenna for Wearable Electronics.

The rapid progress in electronic applications for movable devices requires the conductive matrix to be not only flexible but also stretchable. A simple microstrip patch antenna was fabricated based on silver ink polysiloxane composite with a stretchable polysiloxane substrate at a resonance frequency of 2.50 GHz.
