Graphene–polymer coating for the realization of strain sensors [PDF]

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2017
In this work we present a novel route to produce a graphene-based film on a polymer substrate. A transparent graphite colloidal suspension was applied to a slat of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). The good adhesion to the PMMA surface, combined with the shear stress, allows a uniform and continuous spreading of the graphite nanocrystals, resulting in ...

Stretchable and Flexible High-Strain Sensors Made Using Carbon Nanotubes and Graphite Films on Natural Rubber

open access: yesSensors, 2014
Conventional metallic strain sensors are flexible, but they can sustain maximum strains of only ~5%, so there is a need for sensors that can bear high strains for multifunctional applications. In this study, we report stretchable and flexible high-strain

Mathematical modelling of plasmonic strain sensors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Inverse and Ill-posed Problems, 2020
Abstract We provide a mathematical analysis for a metasurface constructed of plasmonic nanoparticles mounted periodically on the surface of a microcapsule. We derive an effective transmission condition, which exhibits resonances depending on the inter-particle distance. When the microcapsule is deformed, the resonances are shifted.

High-Temperature SAW Wireless Strain Sensor with Langasite

open access: yesSensors, 2015
Two Surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonators were fabricated on langasite substrates with Euler angle of (0°, 138.5°, 117°) and (0°, 138.5°, 27°). A dipole antenna was bonded to the prepared SAW resonator to form a wireless sensor.

Nanoparticle Strain Sensor

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2011
AbstractStrain sensors have been fabricated by depositing platinum nanoparticles between interdigitated gold electrodes on oxidised silicon substrate. A significant improvement in strain sensitivity is achieved with a gauge factor in excess of 700, which is two orders of magnitude higher than continuous metallic films and five times higher than ...
