Conformable and biodegradable electronic materials are central to human- and eco-benign technologies, including medical implants, food monitoring, wearable electronics, fieldable environmental sensors, and consumer electronics. Devices based on such technologies have to have low human- and eco-toxicity. They should also be biodegradable at the device-end-of-life. Indeed, if we think at the billions of devices required for the Internet of Things (IoT) low environmental impact is an absolute necessity. Last but not least, devices have to be robust (e.g. stretchable and healable) since they could possibly be located in remote, difficult-to-access areas, such as forests and be positioned on objects of arbitrary shape.***To optimize the performance of such devices that have to be adaptable to non-rigid surfaces it is imperative to have a simultaneous Electro-Mechanical materials characterization. ***This proposal seeks funding for versatile infrastructure open to researchers in the Montreal metropolitan area involved in a broad range of areas spanning from stretchable/flexible electronics to bioelectronics and light-weight electronics. The requested infrastructure is a Multiaxial Electro-Mechanical Tester, able to perform electrical measurements in combination with high-precision and multiple-axis testing in compression, tension, shear, indexation and torsion. ***Organic electronic materials are among the most versatile materials for flexible, stretchable and healable electronic devices, since they combine high conductivity, aqueous solution processing, oxide-free interfaces and stability towards corrosion. A further advantage of is the possibility to engineer the mechanical properties of organic electronic films via fine tuning the deposition conditions, substrate pre-stretching or blending with other polymers. Biosourced organic materials featuring intriguing electroactivity, biocompatibility and biodegradability are also available.***The requested infrastructure, involving a gender-balanced team of four researchers at different stages of their career, from multiple institutions, will support research projects on stretchable and healable electronic materials, mechanical properties of meta materials, and environmentally benign electrochemical energy storage.***Because of its (i) interdisciplinary character at the forefront of physical chemistry, chemical, biomedical and mechanical engineering, (ii) potential to produce high-impact science and ground-breaking technologies affecting the quality of life of Canadians from health to environment, the requested equipment represents an exceptional opportunity to train outstanding highly qualified personnel making them tomorrow's leader in the field of emerging electronic technologies combining high performance and sustainability.***********

综合性和可生物降解的电子材料是人类和生态偶然技术的核心，包括医疗植入物，食品监测，可穿戴电子设备，可实地的环境传感器和消费电子产品。基于此类技术的设备必须具有较低的人类和生态毒性。它们还应该在设备终身终止生物降解。确实，如果我们认为物联网（IoT）所需的数十亿个设备（IoT）低环境影响是绝对必要的。最后但并非最不重要的一点是，设备必须坚固（例如可拉伸和可治愈），因为它们可能位于偏远的，难以访问的区域，例如森林，并将其放置在任意形状的对象上。 ***该提案寻求对蒙特利尔大都会地区研究人员开放的多功能基础设施的资金，该地区涉及从可拉伸/柔性电子产品到生物电子和轻型电子产品的广泛地区。请求的基础架构是一种多轴电力测试仪，能够在压缩，张力，剪切，剪切，索引和扭转方面与高精度和多轴测试结合进行电气测量。 ***有机电子材料是柔性，可伸展和可治愈的电子设备的用途最广泛的材料之一，因为它们结合了高电导率，水溶液加工，无氧化物的界面以及腐蚀的稳定性。一个进一步的优点是，可以通过微调沉积条件，底物预伸入或与其他聚合物混合来设计有机电子膜的机械性能。 Biosourced organic materials featuring intriguing electroactivity, biocompatibility and biodegradability are also available.***The requested infrastructure, involving a gender-balanced team of four researchers at different stages of their career, from multiple institutions, will support research projects on stretchable and healable electronic materials, mechanical properties of meta materials, and environmentally benign electrochemical energy storage.***Because of its (i)在物理化学，化学，生物医学和机械工程的最前沿，（ii）产生影响加拿大人从健康到环境的加拿大人生活质量的高影响力的科学和突破性技术的潜力，所请求的设备代表着一个非凡的机会，是培训高素质人员在明天的领域，使他们在效率高高的技术领域中，可保持高度良好的能力和良好的电子产品。
