At that time, it will become feasible to achieve large-scale and cost-effective fabrication of flexible batteries with the development of printable electronic techniques. The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest.
Although flexible batteries have come a long way, most of them focus on the exploitation of advanced materials and the enumeration of potential structures. The prevailing approach to structure classification in the field is still based on the shape and mode of deformation of batter.
Meanwhile, the metal anodes need modification to improve stability, which requires external procedures or the use of an auxiliary membrane, bringing additional steps and expenses. Therefore, convenient and scalable manufacturing methods are crucial for the advancement of flexible batteries.
However, the development of flexible batteries is largely focused on advanced electrodes or electrolytes, and little attention is paid to the structural design. In this perspective, we highlight the structural design strategies and corresponding requirements of flexible batteries for typical flexible electronic devices.
Therefore, convenient and scalable manufacturing methods are crucial for the advancement of flexible batteries. Representatively, roll-to-roll printing, electrospinning, 3D printing, magnetron sputtering and chemical vapor deposition have been developed to attain scalable flexible electrodes with high volumetric energy density and firm structure.
