Heterogeneous Strain Distribution Based Programmable Gated Microchannel for Ultrasensitive and Stable Strain Sensing (Adv. Mater. 2/2023)

Strain Sensing In article number 2207141, Yongsong Luo, Xiaoliang Chen, Jinyou Shao, and co-workers propose a gated microchannel-based strain-sensing strategy inspired by ion channels in living organisms. Discretely distributed micropillars are introduced into fluidic to act as smart gates, which can nearly cut off the pathways during contraction closure, resulting ultrahigh sensitivity robust stability.
