摘要
Laser-induced graphene (LIG) has attracted considerable attention for its use in flexible and stretchable sensors, owing to its electrical/mechanical properties and scalable fabrication processes. Although laser scanning facilitates the formation of LIG and its strain sensor, the strain-sensing sensitivity enhancement of LIG remains limited by the material's properties and structural design. In this study, we demonstrate a substantial improvement in sensitivity that was achieved by fabricating a LIG using ZnO nanoparticle (NP)-assisted photothermal enhancement. The results show that ZnO NPs selectively reduce the threshold fluence needed to convert polyimide (PI) into LIG. By transferring the LIG formed on PI to poly(dimethylsiloxane), we fabricate a stretchable strain sensor with ultrahigh sensitivity and a gauge factor of 1214 at 10% strain, which is approximately 60 times higher than the gauge factor without ZnO NPs. Using the selective graphenization properties of LIG, a flexible, dual-sided integrated sensor sheet that is equipped with flexible strain and ultraviolet (UV) sensors is demonstrated. This sheet enables simultaneous monitoring of UV intensity and joint bending angles of sports wearable devices. We validated the developed sensors by attaching them to a runner's body to monitor and simulate forefoot and heel strikes, demonstrating the sensor's ultrahigh sensitivity and long-term stability without the need for a camera. These findings highlight the potential of the proposed method for developing multifunctional sensor applications with ultrahigh sensitivity and stability.
