Abstract

Assembly of nanoparticles into controllable micro or nanocurve circuits by a feasible strategy is demonstrated. The curves, with various tortuosity morphologies, have tunable resistive strain sensitivity, which can be integrated into a multi-analysis flexible sensor. The curve-based sensor can run complicated facial expression recognition, and may contribute practical applications on auxiliary apparatus for skin micromotion manipulation for paraplegics.

Keywords: curve arrays; flexible electronics; multirecognition; nanoparticles; self-assembly.
