| description | Recent technological innovations, such as material printing techniques and surface functionalization, have significantly accelerated the development of new free-form sensors for next-generation flexible, wearable, and three-dimensional electronic devices. Ceramic film sensors, in particular, are in high demand for the production of reliable flexible devices. Various ceramic films can now be formed on plastic substrates through the development of low temperature fabrication processes for ceramic films, such as photocrystallization and transferring methods. Among flexible sensors, strain sensors for precise motion detection and photodetectors for biomonitoring have seen the most research development, but other fundamental sensors for temperature and humidity have also begun to grow. Recently, flexible gas and electrochemical sensors have attracted a lot of attention from a new real-time monitoring application that uses human breath and perspiration to accurately diagnose presymptomatic states. The development of a low-temperature fabrication process of ceramic film sensors and related components will complete the chemically stable and reliable free-form sensing devices by satisfying the demands that can only be addressed by flexible metal and organic components. |
