High-performance flexible pressure sensors have attracted a great deal of attention, owing to its potential applications such as human activity monitoring, man-machine interaction, and robotics. However, most high-performance flexible pressure sensors are complex and costly to manufacture. These sensors cannot be repaired after external mechanical damage and lack of tactile feedback applications. Herein, a high-performance flexible pressure sensor based on MXene/polyurethane (PU)/interdigital electrodes is fabricated by using a low-cost and universal spray method. The sprayed MXene on the spinosum structure PU and other arbitrary flexible substrates (represented by polyimide and membrane filter) act as the sensitive layer and the interdigital electrodes, respectively. The sensor shows an ultrahigh sensitivity (up to 509.8 kPa -1 ), extremely fast response speed (67.3 ms), recovery speed (44.8 ms), and good stability (10 000 cycles) due to the interaction between the sensitive layer and the interdigital electrodes. In addition, the hydrogen bond of PU endows the device with the self-healing function. The sensor can also be integrated with a circuit, which can realize tactile feedback function. This MXene-based high-performance pressure sensor, along with its designing/fabrication, is expected to be widely used in human activity detection, electronic skin, intelligent robots, and many other aspects.
Iodine vacancy defects in MA-free perovskite are effectively passivated through the interaction between Pb2+ and the functional groups in d-penicillamine, resulting in an impressive efficiency of 22.4% along with excellent operational stability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
