ReviewDiscover nano2026
Flexible electronics research knowledge mapping based on VOSviewer and CiteSpace bibliometric analysis.
Review in Discover nano, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Innovations in polymer chemistry and materials science have accelerated the development of high-performance flexible electronics for applications in various fields. While prior research has extensively reviewed progress within specialized subfields of flexible electronics, a systematic examination of the field's overall research landscape and its interconnections with adjacent knowledge domains remains absent. This review presents the first detailed bibliometric analysis of flexible electronics research trends, effectively balancing scholarly rigor with accessibility. Through VOSviewer and CiteSpace analysis of publications spanning 2006-2025, the publications have maintained steady growth with a markedly increased growth rate in recent years. Wei Huang was the most productive authors, while John A. Rogers showed the highest total link strength. Considering the productive and impactful institution, China and USA are unequivocally the preeminent forces in the field of flexible electronic. And South Korea and Japan remain significant forces that cannot be overlooked. Flexible electronic, performance, fabrication, films, graphene, transparent, and nanoparticles were among the high-frequency keywords. Four future development directions were recognized including material innovation, advanced manufacturing technology revolution, multimodal flexible integrated sensors, and machine learning-enhanced flexible sensors for health monitoring. This bibliometric investigation aims to provide foundational guidance and strategic direction for advancing flexible electronics research.
