Existing deformable displays often rely on mechanical wires or hinges, limiting their thinness and flexibility. Incorporating sound features typically requires extra components, complicating design. In this study, we developed a lightweight, multifunctional display with a multi-shape bendable design and integrated sound capabilities. Using asymmetrical strain engineering on poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), we achieved bidirectional and complex deformations through electrical signals, eliminating the need for mechanical hinges. The PVDF actuator enables simultaneous sound emission and intricate shape transformations through rapid actuation and vibration. This design maintains the thinness and flexibility of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology. By controlling strain through PVDF polarization and applied electric field, we realized varied shape transformations and integrated these functions into a practical 6-inch OLED display. This approach enhances the functionality of flexible displays, expanding possibilities for future applications in flexible electronics.","PeriodicalId":48528,"journal":{"name":"npj Flexible Electronics","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":14.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143599061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study introduces a facile strategy to fabricate homogenous and dense polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) films with high piezoelectric performance via anhydrous CaCl2 doping. The strong ion–dipole interaction between Ca2+ and F atoms, along with directional dipole alignment under an electric field at elevated temperature, as verified by molecular dynamics simulations and material characterizations. This results in an impressive β-phase content of 92.78% and a piezoelectric coefficient of 29.26 pm/V. A piezoelectric device fabricated from this PVDF film delivers an output voltage exceeding 12 V under external pressure and maintains stability over 60,000 cycles. When integrated with an LC resonant circuit, it functions as a wireless sensor for real-time motion monitoring. This scalable approach significantly advances piezoelectric polymer performance for practical applications.","PeriodicalId":48528,"journal":{"name":"npj Flexible Electronics","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":14.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143569578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The 3D conformal E-skins manufactured by direct-curved-surface or dimensional converting methods both need curved-surface calibration. With increase of units’ number and complication of mounting-surface morphology, curved-surface calibration becomes intricate. We report a universal cutting and distributing strategy for E-skins. The E-skin incorporates hierarchical and modular tactile sensors to match curvatures and sizes, thereby reducing mounting strain. This strategy enables curved-surface performance of 3D conformal E-skins to be characterized by flat-surface calibration results. An example is provided: Three-level sensors are utilized and calibrated on flat and curved surfaces. Performance variations reduce as sensor size decreases, and performance changes of level II and III sensing units are small after mounting. Their calibration results on curved surface are replaced by those on flat surface, proving low mounting strain facilitates 3D conformal E-skins to avoid complicated curved-surface calibration.","PeriodicalId":48528,"journal":{"name":"npj Flexible Electronics","volume":"68 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":14.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143575457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ink is based on liquid metal droplets dispersed in the green solvent propylene glycol using the harmless dispersion agent polyvinylpyrrolidone. The development of a scalable water-spray sintering method in combination with ink optimization yielded highly conductive prints of ≈7.3 × 105 S/m. Interestingly, the printed conductors experienced a resistance increase of less than 10% during 50% strain cycling, which is far below the expected 125% increase due to the geometry factor.

However, current firefighter garments are limited by their singular functionality and cannot collect or analyze body fluid during rescue missions. Here, we introduce a wetting gradient effect assisted ultrasensitive meta-garment that incorporates multi-signal biomonitoring, offering an early warning system for heat exhaustion risk. This design enables real-time detection of heart rate, pH value, and the concentrations of glucose, sodium, and potassium in sweat. Benefiting from the surface energy difference, gradient wettability surfaces can be formed, allowing for precise point-to-point fluid control and regulation. Thus, the biosensing fibers require the lowest detection volume (0.1 μL) and fastest response time (1.4 s) reported to date. This innovative garment provides a practical solution for early health warning based on abnormal multi-biomarker changes, representing a significant advancement in firefighter safety.","PeriodicalId":48528,"journal":{"name":"npj Flexible Electronics","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":14.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143538350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
