▎ 摘  要

A flexible laser-reduced graphene oxide (LRGO) strain gauge formed on a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate is fabricated using a new technique suitable for large-scale and low-cost mass production. The LRGO film is initially synthesized by drop-casting a graphene oxide (GO) solution on a flexible PET substrate, followed by the simultaneous reduction and patterning of the dried film with a 1.8 W carbon dioxide laser. The LRGO film is then characterized by X-ray diffiaction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A multilayer LRGO film with an estimated average thickness of 2.5 mu m and good adhesion to the PET substrate is obtained. The measured gauge factor of the LRGO strain gauge is 61.5.
