Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of organic functional materials and organic electronics, and particularly relates to a modified stretchable electrode and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing demand for real-time health monitoring, human-computer interaction, and implantable biomedical devices, wearable electronic devices have attracted considerable attention in the market. In order to be able to comfortably adhere to elastic human skin, dynamically moving organs, and deformable implantable devices, wearable electronic devices must have high stretchability while maintaining high sensitivity in both relaxed and stretched states. As a core component of flexible electronic devices, stretchable electrodes have demonstrated significant advantages in multiple fields. Among them, stretchable near-infrared organic photodetectors show great application potential in flexible electronics, biomedicine, environmental monitoring, and other fields.

[0003] As a fundamental component of stretchable near-infrared organic photodetectors (OPDs), stretchable transparent electrodes play a key role in achieving highly sensitive stretchable near-infrared OPDs. Among them, silver nanowires (Ag NWs) have excellent conductivity, high transparency and flexibility, and are considered to be attractive candidates for constructing stretchable transparent electrodes when integrated with elastic substrates. However, the mechanical properties (e.g., modulus) of AgNWs-based stretchable electrodes do not match those of the elastic polymer matrix, resulting in stress concentration at the Ag NWs / elastomer interface during stretching. As a result, cracks are easily formed at the Ag NWs / elastomer interface, and Ag NWs crack after cyclic stretching at large strains. In particular, for highly transparent AgNWs composite electrodes with Ag NWs networks, the fracture of AgNWs can lead to an insufficient conductive network, resulting in a significant increase in the square resistance after cyclic stretching. Summary of the Invention

The modified stretchable electrode has high conductivity, high transparency and high fatigue resistance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0107] from Figure 6 It can be seen that the tensile properties of AgNWs improve after HOS modification.

[0108] (7) Figure 7 The relative detection rate curves of the stretchable near-infrared light detector (AgNWs-HOS) prepared in Application Example 3, the stretchable near-infrared light detector (AgNWs) prepared in Comparative Application Example 1, and the stretchable near-infrared light detector (ITO) prepared in Comparative Application Example 2 are obtained by joint testing with an external quantum efficiency tester and a semiconductor parameter meter.

[0109] from Figure 7 It can be seen that after HOS modification, the stretchable near-infrared photodetector device based on AgNWs-HOS electrode has the best performance, indicating that HOS modification has a positive effect on the stretchable near-infrared photodetector.
