Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="smll201500529-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Stretchable and transparent electrodes</bold> are fabricated by chemical deposition of metal thin films on natural veins of leaves at ambient conditions. These vein‐based transparent electrodes show excellent electro‐optical property (0.9 Ω sq⁻¹ at 83% T) even at 50% tensile strains, ideal for flexible and stretchable optoelectronic devices. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj22dmd5zx" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
