Phosphorescence-Based Flexible and Transparent Optical Temperature-Sensing Skin Capable of Operating in Extreme Environments

Abstract

A phosphorescence-based flexible optical temperature-sensing skin was developed for temperature sensing in intelligent bionic robots and automated medical treatment. 4,4-Diamino diphenyl ether and 4,4′-oxydiphthalic anhydride were combined as polyimide for use as the substrate of the flexible sensor. The substrate was doped with 6 μm MFG particles as temperature probes. Ultrasonic dispersion and thermal imidization were used to prepare a 45-μm-thick flexible temperature sensor. Compared with a traditional electronic-based flexible temperature sensor, the flexible temperature sensor has the advantages of noncontact measurement, a wide range of measurement temperature (−150 to 300 °C), high spatial resolution, and accuracy. It can also survive in harsh environments, including extremely low temperatures and high temperatures, and can withstand large deformations and large stresses. Its flexibility, extreme environmental resistance, and excellent mechanical properties show that it has great potential for wireless temperature measurement.

Flexibly stretchable acrylic resin elastomer films for efficient electromagnetic shielding and photothermal conversion

“…[6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] At the same time, with the rapid development of information technology and communication equipment, exible intelligent wearable electronic devices with self-heat or swi heat dissipation property are attracting close attention from researchers. 14 Wearable electronic devices can be used for medical diagnosis, 15 physiological activity monitors, 16 exible robots, 17,18 etc. In order to enhance the signal stability and reduce the radiation of wearable electronic devices, as well as ensure the self-heating and heat dissipation properties, it is urgent to develop composites with excellent EMI shielding performance and efficient thermal management.…”

Single-component compounds with wide-range color-tunable ultralong organic phosphorescence

“…They hold great potential for opto-electronics, 1 bioimaging, 2 anti-counterfeiting 3 and sensoring. 4 Accordingly, numerous UOP materials through crystallization, 5 H-aggregation, 6 host–guest doping, 7 introduction of heavy atoms, 8 heteroatoms 9 and carbonyl groups, 10 and so on have been explored. However, UOP materials with color-tuning properties are still relatively rare, especially for a single-component system, 11 although great efforts have been made through host–guest doping, 12 polymerization, 13 phosphorescence energy transfer, 14 regioisomeric substitution space 15 and other strategies.…”
