Embodiment 1

[0034] A novel flexible pressure sensing structure prepared by the following method:

[0035] 1) The 6 μm thick copper foil was hot-pressed on the polydimethylsiloxane film by the lamination method, and the interdigitated electrode array was processed by the laser direct writing process.

Abstract

The invention provides a flexible pressure sensing structure and a flexible pressure sensor, and solves the technical problems that the sensitivity of an existing piezoresistive pressure sensor is reduced along with the increase of pressure, and the stability is poor. The flexible pressure sensing structure comprises a conductive film, an upper electrode and a lower electrode, wherein the upper electrode and the lower electrode are respectively adhered to the upper surface and the lower surface of the conductive film and are arranged in a face-to-face staggered manner; when the flexible pressure sensing structure is under pressure, the conductive film generates strain along the direction vertical to the electrode plane, so that the resistance is increased, that is, when the pressure is applied to the structure, the stress of the upper electrode acting on the conductive film enables the film to pass through the hollow part (namely the gap) between the electrodes to generate strain vertical to the electrode plane, and the resistance of the sensing unit is increased along with the increase of the pressure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of flexible sensors, and in particular relates to a novel flexible pressure sensing structure and a flexible pressure sensor. Background technique [0002] The flexible piezoresistive pressure sensor is the most widely studied sensor in the past 20 years. It has the advantages of simple structure, large working range, and good stability. It has potential development in the fields of wearable health monitoring, smart medical care, and human-computer interaction. need. A practical pressure sensor needs to have a high sensitivity value. [0003] Practical pressure sensors need to have higher sensitivity values. The sensitivity of piezoresistive pressure sensors is defined as the rate of change of resistance under certain pressure conditions. Therefore, to improve sensitivity, the amount of resistance change under certain pressure must be increased. However, the resistance of most current pressure sensors decr...
