We have reported a generic process flow to fabricate mechanically flexible and optically semitransparent thermoelectric generators (TEGs), micro-lithium based batteries (mLIB) and metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors (MOSCAPs) on a mono-crystalline silicon fabric platform from standard bulk silicon (100) wafers. All the fabricated devices show outstanding mechanical flexibility and performance, making an important step towards monolithic integration of Energy Chip (self-powered devices) including energy harvesters and electronic devises on flexible platforms. Many different approaches have been reported to develop macro scalee flexible electronics, but high performance and economical solutions have not been demonstrated.
