Typically, these sensors are constructed using a matrix of conductive nanowires and soft materials such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), which serve as electrodes in thin film supercapacitors (TFSs). To facilitate multimode sensing, ability to modulate response curves is crucial for practical application. In this study, we introduce porous conducting graphene sheet (GS) films with customizable thickness as TFS electrodes. We first develop a wafer-scale fabrication method using vacuum filtration, to yield GS films with adjustable sheet resistance that can approach the percolation threshold. The use of a hydrophilic cellulose acetate (CA) filter membrane facilitates spontaneuous and nondestructive detachment of the GS film from the membrane post-dehydration. The spontaneous separation mechanism is elucidated through time-dependent contact angle measurements on porous films. The GS film, once separated, can be seamlessly and consistently incorporated into TFS devices as electrodes. This integration allows for multimode sensing capability with simultaneous capacitive strain sensing and ionotropic temperature sensing. The tunable nature of these porous GS films by adjusting the electrode thickness, enables fine-tuning of the response curves for multimode sensing.</p>","PeriodicalId":7292,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Materials Technologies","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143111558","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}

In this study, a biomimicry approach is proposed with inspiration from natural fiber architecture to create a novel concept of thermally active 4D printed tubular metacomposites. These metacomposites exhibit high mechanical performance and 3D-to-3D shape-changing ability triggered by changes in temperature. A rotative printer is proposed for winding a continuous carbon fibers reinforced PolyAmide 6.I composite on a PolyAmide 6.6 polymer mandrel in a similar manner to the structure of cellulose microfibrils within the polysaccharide matrix of natural fiber cell-walls. The resulting 4D printed tubular metacomposites exhibit programmable rotation and torque in response to thermal variations thanks to the control of their mesostructure and the overall geometry.

Herein, the n-doping of two functionalized (carbonyl vs dicyanovinylene) indenofluorene-based conjugated small molecules, 2,8-bis(5-(2-octyldodecyl)thien-2-yl)indeno[1,2-b]fluorene-6,12-dione (TIFDKT) and 2,2′-(2,8-bis(3-alkylthiophen-2-yl)indeno[1,2-b]fluorene-6,12-diylidene)dimalononitrile (TIFDMT) are demonstrated, with n-type dopant N-DMBI. While TIFDKT shows decent miscibility with N-DMBI, it can be hardly n-doped owing to its insufficiently low LUMO. On the other hand, TIFDMT, despite a poorer miscibility with N-DMBI, can be efficiently n-doped, reaching a respectable electrical conductivity of 0.16 S cm<sup>−1</sup>. Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements confirm the efficient n-doping of TIFDMT. Based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the LUMO frontier orbital energy of TIFDMT is much lower, and its wave function is more delocalized compared to TIFDKT. Additionally, the polarons are more delocalized in the n-doped TIFDMT. Remarkably, as indicated by the grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS), the molecular order for TIFDMT thin-film is enhanced by n-doping, leading to more favorable packing with edge-on orientation and shorter π-π stacking distances (from 3.61 to 3.36 Å). This induces more efficient charge transport in the doped state. Upon optimization, a decent thermoelectric power factor of 0.25 µWm<sup>−1</sup>K<sup>−2</sup> is achieved for n-doped TIFDMT.
