Graphite on paper as material for sensitive thermoresistive sensors

Flexible Graphite-on-Paper Piezoresistive Sensors

We demonstrate novel graphite-on-paper piezoresistive devices. The graphite was used as sensing component. The fabrication process can be finished in a short time with simple tools (e.g., a scissor and a pencil). A small array of six paper-based piezoresistive devices is made. The whole device is flexible. The test results showed that the change of resistance was proportional to the applied for...

Highly sensitive and flexible inkjet printed SERS sensors on paper.

Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has the potential to be utilized for the detection of a broad range of chemicals in trace quantities. However, because of the cost and complexity of SERS devices, the technology has been unable to fill the needs of many practical applications, in particular the need for rapid, portable, on-site detection in the field. In this work, we review a new meth...

Green paper-based piezoelectric material for sensors and actuators

In this work, the fabrication of Rochelle salt based piezoelectric structures is illustrated. Structures composed of paper and Rochelle salt are easily manufactured using simple processes. Both manufacturing and the material itself are environmental friendly. Additionally Rochelle salt is biocompatible. In the paradigm of a cleaner piezoelectric technology, the fabrication of active sensing or ...

Sensors Characterization and Control of Measurement Systems Based on Thermoresistive Sensors via Feedback Linearization

Sensors Characterization and Control of Measurement Systems Based on Thermoresistive Sensors Kept at Constant Temperature

− This paper proposes the use of feedback linearization for the characterization of thermoresistive sensors and for the control of measurement systems based on thermoresistive sensors kept at constant temperature. Two important benefits brought by feedback linearization are: regarding sensor characterization, it allows the determination of static and dynamic parameters by a single experimental ...
