摘要

In this work, a simple, controllable and mass-produced microcrack technique for stretchable strain sensors is presented. Specifically, the conductive layer (hydroxylated MWCNTs) and the flexible substrate (Ecoflex) of fiber strain flexible sensors are modified based on proton irradiation defect engineering. The evolution of defects in sensitive materials and the density of microcracks in flexible substrates are controlled by controlling the irradiation fluence during the irradiation process. In particular, when the irradiation fluence is 1 × 1014 p cm−2, the gauge factor (GF) of the fiber strain sensor is as high as 1274.8, and the response time and recovery time are reduced by 49.4% and 45.1%, respectively. At the same time, the microcracked structure does not fracture easily under a large strain, the maximum strain being 800%. In addition, fiber strain flexible sensors can also be used to detect biomechanical signals in different scenarios. This simple and efficient microcrack technique opens up a new prospect for the fabrication of high-performance stretchable strain sensors.
