研究目的
To develop flexible low-voltage organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) with high sensitivity for pressure sensing applications in wearable electronics.
研究成果
The study successfully developed a novel type of polyelectrolyte dielectrics for high-performance flexible OTFTs and ultrasensitive pressure sensors with sub-1 V operation. The flexible OTFTs and pressure sensors exhibited excellent electrical performance, flexibility, and durability, demonstrating their potential for applications in wearable electronics and smart skins.
研究不足
The detection limit of the pressure sensors is relatively large, responding to an applied pressure up to ≈2 kPa. The accuracy of the measured response time may be limited by the equipment used.
