Abstract
The pursuit of efficient and accurate human–computer interface design urgently requires high-performance sensors with pressure sensitivity, a wide detection range, and excellent cycling stability. Herein, a biomimetic honeycomb-like Ti3C2Tx MXene/bacterial cellulose (BC) aerogel with a negative Poisson’s ratio (ν = −0.14) synthesized from the bidirectional freeze-drying method is used as the active material for a flexible pressure sensor, which exhibits high sensitivity (20.14 kPa–1), fast response time (100 ms), excellent mechanical durability (5000 cycles), and a low detection limit (responding to a grain of rice weighing about 0.022 g). Moreover, when assembled into the sandwich-structured bending sensor with the aerogel layer at just 0.8 mm in thickness, the aerogel-based device has a wide angular detection range (2.7–156.3°), high sensitivity (0.47 deg–1), and good robustness, proving outstanding electromechanical performance. Significantly, a smart glove consisting of five bending sensors fixed to the proximal knuckles and a flexible circuit board as the signal processing unit was designed for the identification of the shape, demonstrating its promising applications in the field of human–computer interaction.
期刊介绍:
ACS Sensors is a peer-reviewed research journal that focuses on the dissemination of new and original knowledge in the field of sensor science, particularly those that selectively sense chemical or biological species or processes. The journal covers a broad range of topics, including but not limited to biosensors, chemical sensors, gas sensors, intracellular sensors, single molecule sensors, cell chips, and microfluidic devices. It aims to publish articles that address conceptual advances in sensing technology applicable to various types of analytes or application papers that report on the use of existing sensing concepts in new ways or for new analytes.
