Studies on printable semiconductors and technologies have increased rapidly over recent decades, pioneering novel applications in many fields, such as energy, sensing, logic circuits, and information displays. The newest display technologies are already turning to metal oxide semiconductors, i.e., indium gallium zinc oxide, for the improvements needed to drive active matrix organic light‐emitting diodes. Convenience and portability will be realized with flexible and wearable displays in the future. This report summarizes recent progress on the development of solution‐processed thin film transistors, especially those deposited at low temperatures for next‐generation flexible smart displays. The first part provides an overview on the history and current status of displays. Then, recent advances in state‐of‐the‐art solution‐processed transistors based on different semiconductors are presented, including metal oxides, organic materials, perovskites, and carbon nanotubes. Finally, conclusions are drawn and the remaining challenges and future perspectives are discussed. Semiconductor evolution has greatly promoted the development of high‐end displays over the past decades. Benefiting from the unique characteristics of low‐cost solution routes, recent progress in the development of solution‐processed thin film transistors (metal oxides, organics, carbon nanotubes, and perovskite) and their applications in next‐generation flexible smart displays are summarized. The challenges and prospectives for further development are also highlighted.
