Highly sensitive and flexible strain sensor based on AuNPs/CNTs’ synergic conductive network

Strain sensor is widely desired for flexible and wearable electronic devices, such as human motion capturing and electronic skin. In strain sensing, it is a challenge to ensure that the strain sensor based on CNTs–PDMS has both high-performance flexibility and sensitivity. Here, this study reports a flexible strain sensor based on the AuNPs/CNTs/PDMS composite films fabricated by in-situ reduction, which has high sensitivity and wide linear...
