Abstract Scope |
Stretchable and wearable sensors that can be conformably attached to human skin or integrated with textiles to monitor the physiological parameters of humans have garnered tremendous interest. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and silver nanowires (AgNWs) have emerged as promising materials for stretchable and wearable electronics. In this talk, I will discuss the recent advances in CNT- and AgNW-based stretchable and wearable electronics. I will start with highly conductive and stretchable electrodes based on CNTs and AgNWs, highlighting the critical role of buckling. Then I will present a number of wearable sensors using CNTs and AgNWs for monitoring of human health and motions. A critical issue for developing nanomaterial-based stretchable devices – scalable nanomanufacturing – will be discussed. I will conclude my talk with some recent work extending from wearable sensors for human health to wearable plant sensors and soft robotics. |
