Abstract
A biomimetic strain sensor was designed and constructed based on Ir nanoparticles-modified multi-wall carbon nanotubes (Ir NPs@MWCNTs) and parallel Pt layer/dragon skin with carbonized butterfly wing patterns. This sensor exhibits high gauge factor (∼515.4), extensive tensile range (0%–96%), and swift response (∼300 ms), especially remarkable stability up to 60 000 cycles. The work mechanism has been proposed based on the experimental test and finite-element method. Some important applications such as human motion and micro-expression recognition have been confirmed using 3 × 3 flexible biomimetic sensor array.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
