▎ 摘 要
Recent years have witnessed significant development of flexible strain sensors in a variety of fields. Nevertheless, the challenge of integrating a broad sensing range (>50%) with high sensitivity [gauge factor (GF) value > 100 over the entire sensing strain] in one single flexible strain sensor still exists. Herein, we prepared a flexible strain sensor based on braided graphene belts (BGBs) and dragon skin. Such a BGB strain sensor exhibits an integration of a wide sensing range (up to 55.55%) and high sensitivity (GF value > 175.16 through the entire working range). Besides, this BGB strain sensor also demonstrates a minute monitoring limit (0.01%), low hysteresis and overshoot behaviors, and reliable cycling repeatability (>6000 cycles). The SEM microscopy observations reveal that the skew angle and intersection regions of graphene belts are mainly responsible for the desirable sensing performance. Finally, the successful detection of full-range human motions, from subtle actions to vigorously joint-related movements, reflects great potential of the BGB strain sensor in the application of wearable instruments.
