Abstract

Lightweight and flexible fiber devices are currently attracting significant interest in the field of advanced wearable electronics. However, many electroluminescent fiber devices suffer from high operating voltage and power consumption. To address this issue, a novel low-power-consumption coaxial electrophoretic display fiber (EPDF) with low-power-consumption, which consists of silver nanowire electrodes, electrophoretic microcapsule layer, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) encapsulation layer and PDMS substrate, was fabricated using a simple dip-coating method. The prepared fiber devices exhibit full functionality under a human-safe voltage of 30 V, featuring uniform and angle-independent contrast. Moreover, the EPDFs demonstrate excellent flexibility and mechanical stability, capable of operating properly at axial strains exceeding 50% and maintaining performance after 1000 cycles of 30% strain. The EPDFs, encapsulated with transparent PDMS, demonstrating exceptional wearability and biocompatibility. Benefiting from the distinctive bistable characteristics of electrophoretic microcapsule particles, EPDFs exhibit ultralow power consumption, and the varying light absorption capacities in different display states empower them to adapt effectively to diverse environments. These remarkable features qualify EPDFs for various outdoor wearable applications. Finally, a proof-of-concept of electrophoretic display fabric is demonstrated by weaving the as-prepared fiber with common yarn, showcasing the future perspective of wearable functional textiles entirely woven from EPD.

具有拉伸性和环境适应性的超低功耗同轴结构电泳显示光纤
在先进的可穿戴电子设备领域,轻巧灵活的光纤设备正引起人们的极大兴趣。然而,许多电致发光光纤器件都存在工作电压高、功耗大的问题。为解决这一问题,研究人员采用简单的浸涂法制作了一种新型低功耗同轴电泳显示光纤(EPDF),它由银纳米线电极、电泳微胶囊层、聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS)封装层和 PDMS 基底组成。所制备的光纤器件在 30 V 人体安全电压下具有完整的功能,对比度均匀且与角度无关。此外,EPDF 还具有出色的柔韧性和机械稳定性,能够在轴向应变超过 50% 的情况下正常工作,并且在 30% 应变 1000 次后仍能保持性能。EPDF 采用透明的 PDMS 封装,具有出色的耐磨性和生物相容性。得益于电泳微胶囊颗粒独特的双稳态特性,EPDF 具有超低功耗,并且在不同显示状态下具有不同的光吸收能力,能够有效适应各种环境。这些显著特点使 EPDF 能够应用于各种户外可穿戴设备。最后,通过将制备好的纤维与普通纱线编织在一起,展示了电泳显示织物的概念验证,展示了完全由 EPD 编织的可穿戴功能纺织品的未来前景。
