초록

We have fabricated flexible and stretchable pressure sensors using silver nanowires (AgNWs) and analyzed their electric responses. AgNWs are spray coated directly onto uncured polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) such that AgNWs penetrate into the uncured PDMS, enhancing the adhesion properties of AgNWs. However, the single-layered AgNW sensor exhibits unstable electric response and low pressure sensitivity. To tackle it, we have coated a conductive polymer, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) onto the AgNW layer. Such a hybrid bilayer sensor ensures a stable electric response because the over-coating layer of PEDOT:PSS effectively suppresses the protrusion of AgNWs from PDMS during release. To enhance the sensitivity further, we have also fabricated a stacked bilayer AgNW sensor. However, its electric response varies depending sensitively on the initial overlap pressure.
