Flexible electronics is a rapidly developing field of study, which integrates many other fields, including materials science, biology, chemistry, physics, and electrical engineering. Despite their vast potential, the widespread utilization of flexible electronics is hindered by several constraints, including elevated Young's modulus, inadequate biocompatibility, and diminished responsiveness. Therefore, it is necessary to develop innovative materials aimed at overcoming these hurdles and catalysing their practical implementation. In these materials, hydrogels are particularly promising owing to their three-dimensional crosslinked hydrated polymer networks and exceptional properties, positioning them as leading candidates for the development of future flexible electronics.
