A noncoplanar mesh design that enables electronic systems to achieve large, reversible levels stretchability (100%) is studied theoretically and experimentally. The design uses semiconductor device islands and buckled thin interconnects on elastometric substrates. A mechanics model is established to understand the underlying physics and to guide the design of such systems. The predicted buckle amplitude agrees well with experiments within 5.5% error without any parameter fitting. The results also give the maximum strains in the interconnects and the islands, as well as the overall system stretchability and compressibility.
