Mimosa-inspired design of a flexible pressure sensor with touch sensitivity
1Department of Chemical Engineering, Monash University, Clayton, Victoria, 3800, Australia.
Abstract:
A bio-inspired flexible pressure sensor is generated with high sensitivity (50.17 kPa(-1)), quick responding time (<20 ms), and durable stability (negligible loading-unloading signal changes over 10 000 cycles). Notably, the key resource of surface microstructures upon sensor substrates results from the direct molding of natural mimosa leaves, presenting a simple, environment-friendly and easy scale-up fabrication process for these flexible pressure sensors.
