Smart hydrogel fibers for sensing, energy conversion, and storage
Hydrogel fibers with sensing or energy storage functions play a crucial role in flexible and wearable electronic materials. However, the functionalities of existing hydrogel fibers are typically limited to one of these domains, and semiconductor-like fibers remain relatively rare. In this work, we designed a hydrogel fiber material by using ι-carrageenan molecular chains as the anionic framework, utilizing Al3+ as cross-linking points, and retaining freely mobile K+ and Na+ ions to enable charge transport. Results showed that it integrates external-powered or self-powered strain sensor, temperature sensor, supercapacitor functionality, and near-semiconductor characteristics.
