Graphene/polydimethylsiloxane nanocomposite strain sensor
Review of Scientific Instruments, 2013The objective of this research is to fabricate graphene nanopowder composites based on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and to characterize the gauge factor of the graphene/PDMS composites for the use of strain sensors. The fabrication of graphene/PDMS composites can be accomplished by simple sonication and micro molding processes.

Flexible platinum nanoparticle strain sensors
2013 Proceedings of the European Solid-State Device Research Conference (ESSDERC), 2013Using a modified magnetron sputtering technique, platinum nanoparticles having a mean diameter of 4–6 nm have been deposited on flexible polyimide substrates. The polyimide substrates have been previously patterned with gold interdigitated electrodes having an inter-finger distance of 10 μm using conventional photo lithography and the e-gun evaporation

Material Approaches to Stretchable Strain Sensors
ChemPhysChem, 2015AbstractWith the recent progress made in wearable electronics, devices now require high flexibility and stretchability up to large strain levels (typically larger than 30 % strain). Wearable strain sensors or deformable strain sensors have been gaining increasing research interest because of the rapid development of electronic skins and robotics and ...

Effects of the textile-sensor interface on stitched strain sensor performance
Proceedings of the 23rd International Symposium on Wearable Computers, 2019The influence of the textile substrate on the performance of a textile-based strain sensor has not been well understood or characterized in many wearable sensor evaluations. The underlying textile has its own anisotropic mechanical behaviors due to its woven or knit fabrication process, and introduces non-trivial structural influences on integrated ...

Strain sensor using twisted optical fibers
Optics Letters, 1984A novel sensor using twisted optical fibers is proposed to detect distributed tensile strain. This sensor converts tensile strain to optical loss. The relation between tensile strain and optical loss is modeled and experimentally confirmed for uniform tensile strain.
