This paper reports an intrinsically stretchable polymer electret for energy autonomy of skin electronics. For the first time, perfluoroelastomer FFKM is proposed as a polymer electret, which is compatible with the MEMS process and has the high surface charge density as stretchable electrets. With the aid of the cross-linking reaction with triallyl isocyanurate for integration of the charge traps, a record-high surface charge density up to 0.6 mC/m 2 as well as the linear elastic region up to 180 % has been obtained. TSD measurements reveal that the cross-linking process also improves thermal stability of charges.
