Pacinian Corpuscle‐Inspired Strain Conversion Enables Ultrasensitive, Linear, and Broad‐Range Piezoelectric Sensing for Cardiovascular Health Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioinspired piezoelectric sensor mimicking Pacinian corpuscles is developed to enable ultrasensitive and linear pressure sensing. A multilayer grooved architecture converts normal pressure into in‐plane strain, delivering high sensitivity, wide linear range, and efficient energy harvesting, enabling high‐fidelity wrist pulse monitoring and ...
