Description
Electric field controllable preparation and strain sensing application of multi-stage structure polypyrrole modified graphene lamellar composite conductive film Technical Field The invention relates to an electric field controllable preparation and strain sensing application of a multi-level structure polypyrrole modified graphene lamellar composite conductive film, and belongs to the technical field of functional nano materials. Background Along with development of technological innovation and requirements of application scenes, ideal wearable sensors are expected to have the characteristics of good flexibility, high sensitivity, long durability and the like, and the traditional sensors with easy rigidity and brittleness cannot completely meet market requirements. Under the background, the flexible strain sensor is developed, and researchers are continuously innovating active materials, conductive structures and device designs, so that the flexible strain sensor has wide application prospects in the fields of electronic skin, medical care, wearable equipment and the like. In order to meet the application requirements of the current flexible electronic strain sensor, high requirements are put forward on two key performance indexes of response sensitivity and strain range of the sensor. As such, the choice of active material system and the design of specific conductive structures are hot spots for the study of flexible strain sensors in order to optimize the balance of these two properties. Common active materials include carbon-based materials, metal-based materials, conductive polymers, and the like. The carbon-based nano material has great potential in the field of strain sensor materials due to the advantages of high conductivity, good stability, low cost and the like. The typical two-dimensional nanomaterial graphene has the advantages of high strength, light weight, good flexibility, stable layered structure and the like, and plays an important role as a most representative active material in the sensor manufacturing process. The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is used as one of the derivatives of graphene, and the conjugated structure in the lamellar layer is recovered through reduction treatment, so that the conductivity of the film is enhanced, and meanwhile, the graphene oxide/graphene oxide composite film has the characteristics of easiness in functional modification, good chemical and mechanical stability and the like. The conductive polymer has the advantages of adjustable mechanical property, excellent electrochemical property and the like besides the excellent conductivity of the carbon material and the metal material. Among them, the environmental adaptability and synthesis strategies of polypyrrole (PPy) make it a high-performance conductive polymer widely used at present. In addition to relying on the inherent advantages of active nanomaterials, the design strategy of conductive structures is a potential study to increase the sensitivity and strain range of the sensor. For example, some conductive structures inspired by biological organs (such as microcrack structures, skin-like fold structures, serpentine structures, spider web structures, etc.) can delay the breakage of the conductive path of the active layer during the strain process, and conductive path connection points are added, thereby greatly improving the stretchability of the device. Based on the carefully designed active layer of the conductive structure, the microscopic morphology of the active layer is no longer in a random state, so that the inherent characteristics of the active material can be maintained, the active layer can obtain unexpected mechanical and electrical properties, and the overall performance of the sensor is further improved. At present, a plurality of reports are provided for the design and research of an active layer of a graphene-based thin film sensor.
