Transforming electronic skin(e-skin) into true ¨skin¨is the ultimate goal. Tactile sensing is a fundamental function of skin and the development of high-performance flexible pressure sensors is necessary to realize thus. Many reports on flexible pressure sensors have been published in recent years,including numerous studies on improving sensor performance, and in particular, sensitivity. In addition,a number of studies have investigated self-healing materials, multifunctional sensing, and so on. Here,we review recent developments in flexible pressure sensors. First, working principles of flexible pressure sensors, including piezoresistivity, capacitance, and piezoelectricity, are introduced, as well as working mechanisms such as triboelectricity. Then studies on improving the performance of piezoresistive and capacitive flexible pressure sensors are discussed, in addition to other important aspects of this intriguing research field. Finally, we summarize future challenges in developing novel flexible pressure sensors.展开更多

Here, we successfully fabricated a flexible transparent capacitive pressure sensor based on patterned microstructured silver nanowires(AgNWs)/polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS) composite dielectrics. Compared with the pure PDMS dielectric layer with planar structures, the patterned microstructured sensor exhibits a higher sensitivity(0.831 kPa^-1, <0.5 kPa), a lower detection limit,good stability and durability. The enhanced sensing mechanism about the conductive filler content and the patterned microstructures has also been discussed. A 5×5 sensor array was then fabricated to be used as flexible and transparent wearable touch keyboards systems. The fabricated pressure sensor has great potential in the future electronic skin area.展开更多
