A soft, flexible white luminescent film (1 mm) shows promise for foldable electroluminescent devices and applications. This film was fabricated using ZnS:Ag and Mn. Under different excitation wavelengths, the phosphors emit blue light due to Ag+ luminescence centers and red light from the d-d transition of Mn2+. The blue emission is greatly suppressed at high Mn2+ doping levels, requiring reduced Ag+ doping in co-doped ZnS:Ag,Mn compared to solo-doped ZnS:Ag samples.

The transformability of LMNPs endows them with functionalities for sensors in multiple dimensions, such as intelligent response to specific molecules or strains, various morphologies, integration into high-resolution circuits, and conductive elastomers. This review aims to summarize the superior properties of LMs, transformability of LMNPs, and correlated advantages for sensor performance.

Gallium (Ga)-based liquid metals (LMs) possess desirable properties, such as fluidity, high conductivity, and negligible toxicity, which make them inherently soft and well-suited for the fabrication of flexible and wearable biosensors. In this article, we present a comprehensive overview of the recent advancements in the nascent realm of flexible and wearable biosensors employing LMs as key components.

However, conventional LM-elastomer (LME) conductors require a high loading ratio of LM and the post-sintering to rupture LM particles to achieve electric conductivity, which results in high LM consumption and process complexity. In this work, we presented a straightforward and post-sintering-free method that utilizes magnetic aggregation to fabricate stretchable LME conductors. This was achieved by dispersing LM ferrofluid into the elastomer precursor, followed by applying the magnetic field to induce the aggregation and interconnection of the LM ferrofluid particles to form conductive pathways. This method not only simplifies the preparation of initially conductive LME but also reduces the LM loading ratio. The resulting conductive LME composites show high stretchability (up to 650% strain), high conductance stability, and magnetic responsiveness. The stretchable LME conductors were demonstrated in various applications, including the creation of flexible microcircuits, a magnetically controlled soft switch, and a soft hydrogel actuator for grasping tasks. We believe the stretchable LME conductors may find wide applications in electronic skins, soft sensors, and soft machines.","PeriodicalId":74837,"journal":{"name":"Soft science","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136114413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most current flexible pressure sensors are unable to endure large deformation and are prone to performance degradation or even failure during frequent operation due to their multilayered structures. Here, we propose a stretchable all-nanofiber iontronic pressure sensor that is composed of ionic nanofiber membranes used as dielectric layers and liquid metal used as electrodes. This sensor exhibits a high sensitivity of 1.08 kPa-1 over a wide range of 0-300 kPa, with a fast response-relaxation time of about 18/22 ms and excellent stability. The high sensitivity comes from the electric double layer formed at the ionic film/electrode interface, while high stretchability and stability are enabled by in-situ encapsulated all-nanofiber structures. As a proof of concept, a prototype sensor array is integrated into a soft pneumatic gripper, demonstrating its capability of pressure perception and object recognition during the grasping process. Thus, the scheme provides another excellent strategy to fabricate stretchable pressure sensors with superb performance in terms of high stretchability, sensitivity, and stability.","PeriodicalId":74837,"journal":{"name":"Soft science","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135253605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
