Pop-Up Conducting Large-Area Biographene Kirigami

We demonstrate the rapid, large-area transformation of bioenabled graphene laminates into multidimensional geometries for pop-up and stretchable applications. Water-vapor annealing facilitates the controlled plasticization of the multilayered silk–graphene morphologies, allowing highly localized kirigami cuts by programmable drag knife with diverse type and depth of cuts. By adjusting drag-knife depth, we can generate a microscale array of full and partial cuts, enabling a purely topological approach toward the control of metastable fold–unfold states and crack fracture paths in kirigami structures. Through orthogonal control over the graphene–silk compositeʼs nanoscale morphology, cut pattern, and semimetal-like conductivity, we showcase bioenabled laminates as a platform for prospective soft and shape-transforming electronics as flexible interconnects and stretchable energy harvesters
