Abstract The tactile pressure sensor is of great significance in flexible electronics, but sensitivity customization over the required working range with high linearity still remains a critical challenge. Despite numerous efforts to achieve and wide range, most sensitive microstructures tend be obtained only by inverting naturally existing templates without rational design based on fundamental contact principles or models for piezoresistive sensors. Here, positive strategy hyperelastic model...
Flexible pressure sensors with high-performance show broad application prospects in health monitoring, wearable electronic devices, intelligent robot sensing, and other fields. Although flexible have made significant progress sensitivity detection range, most of them still exhibit strong nonlinearity, which leads to troubles signal acquisition thus limits their popularity practical applications. It remains a serious challenge for the sensor achieve high linearity while maintaining...
Stretchable electrodes are desirable in flexible electronics for the transmission and acquisition of electrical signals, but their fabrication process remains challenging. Herein, we report an approach based on patterned liquid metals (LMs) as stretchable using a super-hydrophilic laser-induced graphene (SHL-LIG) with electroless plating copper polyimide (PI) film.
