Problems solved by technology

On the one hand, the microstructure of such a uniform height limits the deformation space in the pressure direction during loading due to the small height of the pyramids; The contact area increases, so the change in effective area is small with the change of pressure, that is, its sensitivity is relatively small, which limits the application field of the sensor. In addition, the core part of this piezoresistive sensor often adopts the structure of substrate, support layer, pressure The sensitive layer is composed of three layers. Since the Young’s modulus of the pressure-sensitive layer is relatively high, using a support layer with a lower Young’s modulus to compound it can reduce the Young’s modulus of the device as a whole and improve its flexibility. However, this structure also has Achilles' heel, due to the difference in Young's modulus between the support layer and the pressure-sensitive layer, when the sensor is repeatedly pressed during use, the deformation of the two cannot be kept in sync, and the pressure-sensitive layer will crack or fall off after a long time. So this structure makes the life of the sensor limited

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of sensors, and relates to a piezoresistive sensor and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a porous piezoresistive sensor with a certain pore size distribution and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] As a detection device that converts mechanical signals into electrical signals, piezoresistive sensors play an important role in the current society and are also a key component of the Internet of Things. Traditional piezoresistive sensors are mainly silicon-based piezoresistive sensors. This type of sensor has High integration, high sensitivity and other excellent features, but due to the high hardness of silicon, the shape of this piezoresistive sensor cannot be changed flexibly, which limits its scope of application. In contrast, flexible piezoresistive sensors have a relatively low Young’s modulus, and have better adaptability and adhesion to various irregularly shaped detection envi...
