Problems solved by technology

However, most of them are difficult to balance sensitivity and range, especially it is difficult to achieve a high sensitivity response to small strains while maintaining a wide linear sensing range
[0005] CN105783695 discloses a method for preparing a graphene composite nano-gold film flexible strain sensor, but because its graphene layer is a continuous structure prepared by CVD method, the sensing gain effect formed by compounding with gold nano-layer is not obvious, and the sensor Poor linearity, difficult to apply to actual strain monitoring

Abstract

The invention discloses a crack flexible strain sensor based on a graphene-gold composite film and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps of preparing a metal electrode on a PDMS flexible substrate through a mask method, forming a quasi-continuous graphene film by using a liquid level self-assembly method, transferring the graphene film to a flexible substrate covering the sensing unit mask through a pulling method, performing magnetron sputtering of nanogold on the surface of the graphene to prepare a graphene-gold composite film, and pre-stretching the PDMS flexible substrate to enable the graphene-gold composite film to generate an initial crack, thereby obtaining the flexible strain sensor based on the graphene-gold composite film crack. The process conditions are mild, array batch manufacturing is easy, the prepared sensor has high sensitivity and a large linear range, the sensitivity can be improved through a mask patterning method, and the sensor is suitable for being integrated in a sensing system to complete strain measurement in a wide range.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of strain sensor preparation, in particular to a flexible strain sensor based on graphene-gold composite film cracks and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] The piezoresistive strain sensor uses the "strain-resistance effect" to convert the local deformation of the measured surface into the resistance value change of the conductive path in the sensor that can be measured intuitively. With the current development of nanomaterials, more and more scholars have paid attention to the research of flexible strain sensors based on nano-films. This new sensor consists of a flexible substrate, nano-functional films and electrode leads. Compared with traditional strain gauges and grating strain sensors, flexible film strain sensors have significant advantages such as strong conformability, strong biocompatibility, light weight, and good stretchability, so more and more applications Human-computer inter...
