Flexible conductive polymer composites for smart wearable strain sensors

Conductive polymer-based sensors for biomedical applications.

A class of organic polymers, known as conducting polymers (CPs), has become increasingly popular due to its unique electrical and optical properties. Material characteristics of CPs are similar to those of some metals and inorganic semiconductors, while retaining polymer properties such as flexibility, and ease of processing and synthesis, generally associated with conventional polymers. Owing ...

Flexible Touchpads Based on Inductive Sensors Using Conductive Composite Polymer and Flexible Metal PCB

Wearable Magnetic Field Sensors for Flexible Electronics

Highly flexible bismuth Hall sensors on polymeric foils are fabricated, and the key optimization steps that are required to boost their sensitivity to the bulk value are identified. The sensor can be bent around the wrist or positioned on the finger to realize an interactive pointing device for wearable electronics. Furthermore, this technology is of great interest for the rapidly developing ma...
