Mimosa‐Inspired Design of a Flexible Pressure Sensor with Touch Sensitivity

Abstract

A bio-inspired flexible pressure sensor is generated with high sensitivity (50.17 kPa−1), quick responding time (<20 ms), and durable stability (negligible loading-unloading signal changes over 10 000 cycles). Notably, the key resource of surface microstructures upon sensor substrates results from the direct molding of natural mimosa leaves, presenting a simple, environment-friendly and easy scale-up fabrication process for these flexible pressure sensors.
