However, the development of flexible sensors that demonstrate both high sensitivity and reliability while being suitable for integration into actuated parts remains a challenge. In this study, we developed a wing-shaped sensor composed of a hollow fiber polymer structure, into which liquid metal was injected as a flexible conductive material and encapsulated with Ecoflex, which overall presents a cantilever beam structure on both sides. The hollow fiber acts as a natural insulator for the liquid metal coils, while their inner and outer diameters are only 190 and 290 μm, respectively. When both ends of the sensor are deformed by external action, the cantilever beams on both sides will be displaced relative to each other like wings, resulting in a corresponding change in the spatial position of the liquid metal coil, which in turn generates a change in the inductance signal. By leveraging this phenomenon, the wing-type sensor can detect minute displacements at both ends with an accuracy of 5% of their thickness while maintaining excellent stability over 100 cycle tests. This sensor was also able to measure wind speeds in a specific range of 2–10 m/s, with trends that conformed well to both theoretical foundations and simulation results. Further, we have demonstrated several application scenarios for this sensor using this superposition sensing mechanism. Overall, this study elucidates the inductive superposition mechanism of the cantilever beam coils on both sides and offers a strategy for integrating sensing and actuation in flexible robots.</p>","PeriodicalId":3,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Electronic Materials","volume":"7 9","pages":"3913–3921 3913–3921"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143934103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We also show that resilience to H in one process does not automatically translate to resilience to H in the other.

This effect becomes increasingly problematic when the electrode size is reduced since then the double layer impedance dominates up to higher frequencies.

The liquid–vapor phase-change soft composite was prepared by mixing ethanol with the polymer elastomer Ecoflex 00-50. The LIG heater was fabricated on a polyimide substrate through laser ablation. Application of voltage to the LIG heater caused its temperature to rise, which induced a phase change of the ethanol within the composite, ultimately resulting in notable expansion of the soft composite. The LIG heater fabricated using a laser of power 2 W exhibited excellent electrothermal characteristics. Furthermore, the soft composite containing 20 vol % ethanol achieved a strain of 0.2 at 100 °C.

Herein, the attempt is made to grow Cu<sub>2-<i>x</i></sub>S films via sulfurization of copper (Cu) films through the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique at different sulfurization temperatures (200–400 °C). A hexagonal structured CuS phase is observed for the film grown at 300 °C, with a higher crystalline nature confirmed through structural analysis. Surface compositional analysis suggests that the film deposited at 300 °C exhibits more copper vacancies, which shows the greater diffusion of sulfur atoms into copper films, which leads to the formation of well-aggregated nanospheres with larger grains over the film’s surface. Moreover, the band gap of the grown films is observed in the range of 1.79–1.92 eV, and the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) band is observed in the near-infrared (NIR) region through optical studies, which confirms the plasmonic nature of Cu<sub>2-<i>x</i></sub>S. Furthermore, the photodetector properties of the Au/Cu<sub>2-<i>x</i></sub>S/Au test device are investigated in terms of photoresponsivity (<i>R</i><sub>λ</sub>), specific detectivity (D*), and external quantum efficiency (EQE) under visible and NIR light illuminations. The film grown at 300 °C exhibits superior results such as <i>R</i><sub>λ</sub> of 2.48 ± 0.02 A/W and 5.10 ± 0.02 A/W, D* of 3.02 ± 0.02 × 10<sup>12</sup> Jones and 6.21 ± 0.02 × 10<sup>12</sup> Jones, and EQE of 581 ± 5% and 646 ± 5% under visible (λ = 530 nm) and NIR (λ = 980 nm) light illuminations, respectively, with lower incident power density at a bias voltage of 3 V, which signify the potential of the fabricated test device in the broadband photodetectors.</p>","PeriodicalId":3,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Electronic Materials","volume":"7 9","pages":"4144–4160 4144–4160"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143933991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
