A Highly Sensitive Iontronic Bimodal Sensor with Pressure‐Temperature Discriminability for Robot Skin (Adv. Mater. Technol. 21/2023).

In the article "A Highly Sensitive Iontronic Bimodal Sensor with Pressure-Temperature Discriminability for Robot Skin," Geng Yang and co-workers propose a new type of sensor that can detect both pressure and temperature. The sensor's high sensitivity is achieved through the arrangement of electrodes in a compact device structure, a pressure-temperature decoupling mechanism, and a hierarchical compressible microstructure of the iontronic film. This sensor, when used as robot skin, allows the robot to perceive both pressure and temperature, similar to human skin. The authors of the article are Qianqian Yang, Zhiqiu Ye, Renke Wu, Honghao Lv, Chen Li, Kaichen Xu, and Geng Yang. [Extracted from the article]
