A stretchable carbon nanotube strain sensor for human-motion detection

TL;DR: The unique geometry of interlocked microdome arrays enables the differentiation of various mechanical stimuli because the arrays exhibit different levels of deformation depending on the direction of applied forces, thus providing different sensory output patterns.

TL;DR: An overview of the work done on graphene in recent years is presented in this article, which explains the preparation techniques, the properties of graphene related to its physio-chemical structure and some key applications.

TL;DR: Hybrid 3D printing is a new method for producing soft electronics that combines direct ink writing of conductive and dielectric elastomeric materials with automated pick-and-place of surface mount electronic components within an integrated additive manufacturing platform.

TL;DR: A multidimensional strain sensor composed of two layers of prestrained silver nanowire percolation network with decoupled and polarized electrical response in principal and perpendicular directional strain is demonstrated.

TL;DR: Water-stimulated enhanced catalytic activity results in massive growth of superdense and vertically aligned nanotube forests with heights up to 2.5 millimeters that can be easily separated from the catalysts, providing nanotubes material with carbon purity above 99.98%.

TL;DR: This dense carbon-nanotube material is advantageous for numerous applications, and here it is demonstrated its use as flexible heaters as well as supercapacitor electrodes for compact energy-storage devices.

TL;DR: The manufacture of printable elastic conductors comprising single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) uniformly dispersed in a fluorinated rubber is described, which is constructed a rubber-like stretchable active-matrix display comprising integrated printed elastic conductor, organic transistors and organic light-emitting diodes.

TL;DR: A simple approach to high-performance, stretchable, and foldable integrated circuits that integrate inorganic electronic materials, including aligned arrays of nanoribbons of single crystalline silicon, with ultrathin plastic and elastomeric substrates.
