Harsh Environment-Tolerant, High Performance Soft Pressure Sensors Enabled by Fiber-Segment Structure and Plasma Treatment.

As the demand for specialized and diversified pressure sensors continues to increase, excellent performance and multi-applicability have become necessary for pressure sensors. Currently, flexible pressure sensors are primarily utilized in fields such as health monitoring and human-computer interaction. However, numerous complex extreme environments in reality, including deep sea, corrosive conditions, extreme cold, and high temperatures, urgently require the services of flexible devices.

High-sensitivity, ultrawide linear range, antibacterial textile pressure sensor based on chitosan/MXene hierarchical architecture.

It is still a great challenge for the flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors to simultaneously achieve wide linearity and high sensitivity. Herein, we propose a high-performance textile pressure sensor based on chitosan (CTS)/MXene fiber. The hierarchical "point to line" architecture enables the pressure sensor with high sensitivity of 1.
