主讲内容：Electronic skins play an important role in the realization of health monitoring and rehabilitation, Internet of Things (IoTs), and soft robotics. In the past two decades, the research focuses have been devoted to developing these soft electronic skins based on thin film materials and architectures that are non-permeable to air, moisture, and liquid. It is recently found that permeability is essential to the chronic biocompatibility of these soft devices, especially those closely attached on soft skins and tissues. This talk will discuss our research effort on developing permeable types of electronic skins for wearable, skin-attached, and implantable applications. We will discuss the development of fibrous conductive materials, and their applications as building blocks for fabricating highly flexible, foldable, stretchable, and permeable electronic devices and systems, and how these soft systems are applied for health, medical, and training applications.
