Simultaneous strain, strain rate and temperature sensing based on a single active layer of Te nanowires.

ABSTRACT: Stress/strain-temperature sensors are capable of sensing both stress/strain and temperature stimuli, and are widely used in biological health monitoring and human-machine interaction. Conventional stress/strain-temperature sensors are prepared by stacking two single sensors, which have complex structures and often require external power to drive, making long-term stable monitoring challenging. Herein, we demonstrate a flexible single-channel multimodal sensor based on the combined thermoelectric and piezoelectric effects of tellurium nanowires. Based on the tilt-grown reticulated nanowire structure, the sensor can simultaneously sense strain/strain rate and temperature in a single channel of a single active layer of nanowire. The sensor exhibits a record-high strain/strain rate sensing per
