Description
Summary:	A highly stretchable metal electrode is developed via the solution‐processing of very long (>100 μm) metallic nanowires and subsequent percolation network formation via low‐temperature nanowelding. The stretchable metal electrode from very long metal nanowires demonstrated high electrical conductivity (∼9 ohm sq−1) and mechanical compliance (strain > 460%) at the same time. This method is expected to overcome the performance limitation of the current stretchable electronics such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and buckled nanoribbons.
