The electrical properties of radiofrequency (RF) components in skin-interfaced stretchable electronics change significantly due to skin strain induced by body movements and physiological activities, markedly degrading wireless performance. The choice of substrate materials for stretchable electronics is critical. A novel elastic substrate material with tunable dielectric properties in response to strain effectively regulates RF electronic components, maintaining their high-performance wireless functionalities under various deformations.
