Multi-Dimensional Mechanical Mapping Sensor Based on Flexoelectric-Like and Optical Signals.

ABSTRACT: Mechanical sensors execute multi-mode response to external force, which are cornerstones for applications in human-machine interactions and smart wearable equipments. Nevertheless, an integrated sensor responding to mechanical stimulation variables and providing the information of the corresponding signals, as velocity, direction, and stress distribution, remains a challenge. Herein, a Nafion@Ag@ZnS/polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) composite sensor is explored, which realizes the description of mechanical action via optics and electronics signals simultaneously. Combined with the mechano-luminescence (ML) originated from ZnS/PDMS and the flexoelectric-like effect of Nafion@Ag, the corresponding explored sensor achieves the detection of magnitude, direction, velocity, mode of mechanical stimula
