The development of wearable electronics, with applications in artificial skin, soft robots, and health-monitoring systems, is attracting significant attention. However, conventional rigid electronics often exhibit a mechanical mismatch with soft human skin, especially under various natural deformations. Furthermore, a new class of electronic devices exhibiting synaptic behavior has been spotlighted to overcome issues with traditional computing architectures. Therefore, artificial synaptic devices with a soft format emerge as potential candidates for future wearable technology. In this work, we develop a fully stretchable organic electrochemical transistor, composed entirely of soft materials, capable of emulating both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic functionalities. This device demonstrates representative synaptic behaviors under various conditions and maintains its performance under mechanical strain without significant degradation.
