3D Network Spacer-Embedded Flexible Iontronic Pressure Sensor Array with High Sensitivity over a Broad Sensing Range
Microstructure construction is a common strategy for enhancing the sensitivity of flexible pressure sensors, but it typically requires complex manufacturing techniques. In this study, we develop a flexible iontronic pressure sensor (FIPS) by embedding an isolated three-dimensional network spacer (3DNS) between an ionic gel and a flexible Ti3C2Tx MXene electrode, thereby avoiding complex microstructure construction techniques. By leveraging substantial deformation of the 3DNS and the high capacitance density resulting from the electrical double layer effect, the sensor exhibits high sensitivity (87.4 kPa–1) over a broad high-pressure range (400–1000 kPa) while maintaining linearity (R2 = 0.998). Additionally, the FIPS demonstrates a rapid response time of 46 ms, a low limit of detection at 50 Pa, and excellent stability over 10 000 cycles under a high pressure of 600 kPa. As practical demonstrations, the FIPS can effectively monitor human motion such as elbow bending and assist a robotic gripper in accurately sensing gripping tasks. Moreover, a real-time, adaptive 7 × 7 sensing array system is built and can recognize both numeric and alphabetic characters. Our design philosophy can be extended for fabricating pressure sensors with high sensing performance without involving complex techniques, facilitating the applications of flexible sensors in human motion monitoring, robotic tactile sensing, and human–machine interaction.
