Micro‐Strain Responsive Near‐Infrared Mechanoluminescence for Potential Nondestructive Artificial Joint Stress Imaging

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
In situ and real‐time stress sensing during total knee replacement procedure is expected to be realized based on near‐infrared mechanoluminescent phosphor of Sr3Sn1.98Sb0.02O6.99, which has the lowest strain sensitivity as low as 50 µst. Abstract Recently, joint replacement surgery is facing significant challenges of patient dissatisfaction and the ...
