Elastomeric transparent capacitive sensors based on an interpenetrating composite of silver nanowires and polyurethane
Open accessAbstract
Highly flexible transparent capacitive sensors have been demonstrated for the detection of deformation and pressure. The elastomeric sensors employ a pair of compliant electrodes comprising silver nanowire networks embedded in the surface layer of polyurethane matrix, and a highly compliant dielectric spacer sandwiched between the electrodes. The capacitance of the sensor sheets increases linearly with strains up to 60% during uniaxial stretching, and linearly with externally applied transverse pressure from 1 MPa down to 1 kPa. Stretchable sensor arrays consisting of 10 × 10 pixels have also been fabricated by patterning the composite electrodes into X-Y addressable passive matrix.

In the citing paper
“Highly deformable dielectric materials can be realized by using commercial porous tapes, [43] creating microstructures in elastomers using a mold (e.g., the surface of matte glass, [155] a micromachined Si mold, [131] or the surface of lotus leaf [156] ), creating porous elastomers using sugar cubes as the template, [157] or fabricating buckled structures through prestretching and releasing.[158]”

In the citing paper
“Touch sensing can be achieved using the capacitive mechanism in a capacitor configuration.[41,43,54,165,166] Different from strain and pressure sensors that rely on geometrical effect, a decrease in capacitance is seen for touch sensing, arising from the disturbed fringing field by the conducting object (Figure 4d).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
