Meanwhile, in the studies conducted in the field of pressure sensors, the measurement of subtle pressures has received less attention. The limitations in the inherent gauge factor in silicon, have led to the development of polymer and composite resistive sensitive elements. However,in the development of resistance sensing elements, the structure of composite elements with reinforcement core has not been used. The proposed PS had a composite sandwich structure consisting of a nanocomposite graphene layer covered by layers of PDMS at the bottom and on the top coupled with a polyimide(PI) core. Various tests were performed to analyze the PS. The primary design target was improved sensitivity, with a finite-element method(FEM) utilized to simulate the stress profile over piezoresistive elements and membrane deflection at various pressures. The PS manufacturing process is based on Laser-engraved graphene(LEG) technology and PDMS casting. Experimental data indicated that the manufactured PS exhibits a sensitivity of 67.28 mV/kPa for a pressure range of 30-300 Pa in ambient temperature.展开更多

文摘In the modern technological landscape,magnetic field sensors play a crucial role and are indispensable across a range of high-tech applications[1].In conjunction with magnets,magnetic field sensors can accurately detect any form of relative movement of objects without physical contact.For instance,in the precise control of robotic arms or machine tools,a permanent magnet is used as a reference.The magnetic sensor detects the relative movement of magnet by sensing changes in the magnetic field strength.These changes are converted into electrical signals,which are fed back to the control system,enabling accurate positioning and control of the device.This advanced detection technology not only greatly enhances measurement precision but also significantly extends the lifespan of equipment.Among various types of magnetic field sensors,magnetoresistive(MR)sensors stand out for their exceptional performance[1].The high sensitivity allows them to detect minimal changes of magnetic fields in high-precision measurements.Today,MR sensors are widely used across numerous fields,including automobile industries,information processing and storage,navigation systems,biomedical applications,etc[1,2].With their outstanding performance and wide-ranging applications,MR sensors are at the forefront of sensor technology.

文摘Nowadays,force sensors play an important role in industrial production,electronic information,medical health,and many other fields.Two-dimensional material-based filed effect transistor(2D-FET)sensors are competitive with nano-level size,lower power consumption,and accurate response.However,few of them has the capability of impulse detection which is a path function,expressing the cumulative effect of the force on the particle over a period of time.Herein we fabricated the flexible polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA)gate dielectric MoS_(2)-FET for force and impulse sensor application.We systematically investigated the responses of the sensor to constant force and varying forces,and achieved the conversion factors of the drain current signals(I_(ds))to the detected impulse(I).The applied force was detected and recorded by I_(ds)with a low power consumption of~30 nW.The sensitivity of the device can reach~8000%and the 4×1 sensor array is able to detect and locate the normal force applied on it.Moreover,there was almost no performance loss for the device as left in the air for two months.
文摘The Design and manufacturing of a noble piezoresistive pressure sensor(PS) for subtle pressures(<1 kPa) were presented. Meanwhile, in the studies conducted in the field of pressure sensors, the measurement of subtle pressures has received less attention. The limitations in the inherent gauge factor in silicon, have led to the development of polymer and composite resistive sensitive elements. However,in the development of resistance sensing elements, the structure of composite elements with reinforcement core has not been used. The proposed PS had a composite sandwich structure consisting of a nanocomposite graphene layer covered by layers of PDMS at the bottom and on the top coupled with a polyimide(PI) core. Various tests were performed to analyze the PS. The primary design target was improved sensitivity, with a finite-element method(FEM) utilized to simulate the stress profile over piezoresistive elements and membrane deflection at various pressures. The PS manufacturing process is based on Laser-engraved graphene(LEG) technology and PDMS casting. Experimental data indicated that the manufactured PS exhibits a sensitivity of 67.28 mV/kPa for a pressure range of 30-300 Pa in ambient temperature.

文摘A temperature and acoustic impedance simultaneous sensor based on forward stimulated Brillouin scattering(FSBS)in highly nonlinear fiber(HNLF)with high sensitivity and high accuracy is proposed and demonstrated in this paper.High-order acoustic modes(HOAMs)are used to achieve individual or simultaneous measurement of the two parameters.Transverse acoustic waves(TAWs)involved in the FSBS process can efficiently sense the mechanical or environmental changes outside the fiber cladding,which will be reflected in a linear shift of the acoustic resonance frequency.By analyzing the frequencies of specific scattering peaks,the temperature and acoustic impedance outside the fiber cladding can be obtained simultaneously.The highest measured temperature and acoustic impedance sensitivities are 184.93 k Hz/℃and444.56 k Hz/MRayl,and the measurement accuracies are 0.09℃and 0.009 MRayl,respectively,which are both at desirable levels.We believe this work can provide potential application solutions for sensing fields involving temperature or acoustic impedance measurements.

文摘Artificial sensory systems mimic the five human senses to facilitate data interaction between the real and virtual worlds.Accurate data analysis is crucial for converting external stimuli from each artificial sense into user-relevant information,yet conventional signal processing methods struggle with the massive scale,noise,and artificial sensory systems characteristics of data generated by artificial sensory devices.Integrating artificial intelligence(AI)is essential for addressing these challenges and enhancing the performance of artificial sensory systems,making it a rapidly growing area of research in recent years.However,no studies have systematically categorized the output functions of these systems or analyzed the associated AI algorithms and data processing methods.In this review,we present a systematic overview of the latest AI techniques aimed at enhancing the cognitive capabilities of artificial sensory systems replicating the five human senses:touch,taste,vision,smell,and hearing.We categorize the AI-enabled capabilities of artificial sensory systems into four key areas:cognitive simulation,perceptual enhancement,adaptive adjustment,and early warning.We introduce specialized AI algorithms and raw data processing methods for each function,designed to enhance and optimize sensing performance.Finally,we offer a perspective on the future of AI-integrated artificial sensory systems,highlighting technical challenges and potential real-world application scenarios for further innovation.Integration of AI with artificial sensory systems will enable advanced multimodal perception,real-time learning,and predictive capabilities.This will drive precise environmental adaptation and personalized feedback,ultimately positioning these systems as foundational technologies in smart healthcare,agriculture,and automation.

文摘Detection of target analytes at low concentrations is significant in various fields,including pharmaceuticals,healthcare,and environmental protection.Theophylline(TP),a natural alkaloid used as a bronchodilator to treat respiratory disorders such as asthma,bronchitis,and emphysema,has a narrow therapeutic window with a safe plasma concentration ranging from 55.5-111.0μmol·L^(-1)in adults.Accurate monitoring of TP levels is essential because too low or too high can cause se-rious side effects.In this regard,non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors offer a practical solution with rapidity,portability,and high sensitivity.This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of the recent developments of non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors for TP detection,highlighting the basic principles,electro-oxidation mechanisms,catalytic effects,and the role of modifying materials on electrode performance.Carbon-based electrodes such as glassy carbon electrodes(GCEs),carbon paste electrodes(CPEs),and carbon screen-printed electrodes(SPCEs)have become the primary choices for non-enzymatic sensors due to their chemical stability,low cost,and flexibility in modification.This article identifies the sig-nificant contribution of various modifying materials,including nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes(CNTs),graphene,metal oxides,and multi-element nanocomposites.These modifications enhance sensors’electron transfer,sensitivity,and selectivity in detecting TP at low concentrations in complex media such as blood plasma and pharmaceutical samples.The electro-oxidation mechanism of TP is also discussed in depth,emphasizing the hydroxyl and carbonyl reaction pathways strongly influenced by pH and electrode materials.These mechanisms guide the selection of the appropriate electrode ma-terial for a particular application.The main contribution of this article is to identify superior modifying materials that can improve the performance of non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors.In a recent study,the combination of multi-element nanocomposites based on titanium dioxide(TiO_(2)),CNTs,and gold nanoparticles(AuNPs)resulted in the lowest detection limit of 3×10^(-5)μmol·L^(-1),reflecting the great potential of these materials for developing high-performance electrochemical sensors.The main conclusion of this article is the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in electrode material design to support the sensitivity and selectivity of TP detection.In addition,there is still a research gap in understanding TP’s more detailed oxidation mechanism,especially under pH variations and complex environments.Therefore,further research on electrode modification and analysis of the TP oxidation mechanism are urgently needed to improve the accuracy and sta-bility of the sensor while expanding its applications in pharmaceutical monitoring and medical diagnostics.By integrating various innovative materials and technical approaches,this review is expected to be an essential reference for developing efficient and affordable non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors.
