Electrical and electromechanical properties of patterns coated on a 250 μm thick PET substrate. a Current–voltage plot of the Ag NC thin films with continuously and alternately printed patterns (solid black and red profiles, respectively) that were strained to 0% and 1% (solid and dot-dash lines, respectively). Changes in resistance of specimens with b continuously and c alternately printed patterns strained to 0.2% (red), 0.4% (orange), 0.6% (green), and 0.8% (blue). d Changes in resistance of specimens strained to 0.8% as a function of angular orientation (0°, 45°, and 90°). e Cycle test of specimens strained to 1%; insets show four-cycle properties of coupled (red) and periodic (black) Ag NC patterns. f Schematic illustration of electron movement mechanism in scenarios with different interparticle distances
