Epidermal electronic systems (EESs) are skin-like electronic systems, which can be used to measure several physiological parameters from the skin. This paper presents materials and a simple, straightforward fabrication process for skin-conformable inkjet-printed temperature sensors. Epidermal temperature sensors are already presented in some studies, but they are mainly fabricated using traditional photolithography processes. These traditional fabrication routes have several processing steps and they create a substantial amount of material waste. Hence utilizing printing processes, the EES may become attractive for disposable systems by decreasing the manufacturing costs and reducing the wasted materials. In this study, the sensors are fabricated with inkjet-printed graphene/PEDOT:PSS ink and the printing is done on top of a skin-conformable polyurethane plaster (adhesive bandage). Sensor characterization was conducted both in inert and ambient atmosphere and the graphene/PEDOT:PSS temperature sensors (thermistors) were able reach higher than 0.06% per degree Celsius sensitivity in an optimal environment exhibiting negative temperature dependence.

Interactive displays involve the interfacing of a stimuli-responsive sensor with a visual human-readable response. Here, we describe a polymeric electroluminescence-based stimuli-responsive display method that simultaneously detects external stimuli and visualizes the stimulant object. This organic light-emitting board is capable of both sensing and direct visualization of a variety of conductive information. Simultaneous sensing and visualization of the conductive substance is achieved when the conductive object is coupled with the light emissive material layer on application of alternating current. A variety of conductive materials can be detected regardless of their work functions, and thus information written by a conductive pen is clearly visualized, as is a human fingerprint with natural conductivity. Furthermore, we demonstrate that integration of the organic light-emitting board with a fluidic channel readily allows for dynamic monitoring of metallic liquid flow through the channel, which may be suitable for biological detection and imaging applications.

“…27,28 However, it is difficult to obtain stable interconnections between individual devices via the injection method over a large area. Thus, in this work, we adopted a direct printing method using our XYZ printer with the computer software (Auto-CAD), which enabled facile and simple fabrication of stretchable Galinstan interconnections over a large area.…”

Body-attachable sensors can be applied to electronic skin (e-skin) as well as safety forewarning and health monitoring systems. However, achieving facile fabrication of high-performance, cost-effective sensors with mechanical stability in response to deformation due to body movement is challenging. Herein we report the material design, fabrication and characteristics of a skin-like stretchable array of multi-functional (MF) sensors based on a single sensing material of polyurethane foam coated with multi-walled carbon nanotube/polyaniline nanocomposite, which enables simultaneous detection of body temperature, wrist pulse and ammonia gas. These sensors exhibit high sensitivity, fast response and excellent durability. Furthermore, the fabricated sensor array shows stable performance under biaxial stretching up to 50% and attachment to skin owing to the use of directprinted Galinstan liquid metal interconnections. This work proposes a facile method for fabrication of high-performance, stretchable MF sensors via appropriate selection of sensor design and functional materials that are applicable to e-skin and health monitoring systems. NPG Asia Materials (2017) 9, e448; doi:10.1038/am.2017.194; published online 17 November 2017 INTRODUCTIONWearable electronics have attracted considerable attention for use in electronic skin (e-skin) and health monitoring systems in order for a comfortable and secure life. 1-5 e-Skin is a human interactive device that can simultaneously sense signals from the body and respond to the environment. Thus it should be capable of measuring the five types of senses (taste, sight, hearing, olfactory and touch sensation) with high sensitivity and show mechanical stability against deformation due to skin movement. As a result, e-skin is required to be very thin and have a strain-relaxed design. 6 Because of the increasing importance of e-skin, extensive efforts have been undertaken to develop various sensors with high sensitivity. 7 Beyond the conventional sensor that can detect a single stimulus, novel advanced sensors for simultaneous monitoring of multiple stimuli (multi-functional (MF) sensors) have been actively investigated. 8,9 For practical application of such MF sensors, it is necessary to eliminate the interference between different stimuli that is commonly observed in conventional MF sensors, 10 in addition to fabricating cost-effective sensors on a deformable substrate. Development of MF sensors that transduce different stimuli into separate signals can intrinsically minimize signal interference, thus allowing for sensitive detection of multiple parameters, such as temperature and pressure, in a single device without decoupling analysis.
