Nanowires Array

Micropatterns based on the oriented nanowires have attracted research interests for their unique physicochemical advantages in various applications of electric microdevices. Here, we proposed a facile fibrous dewetting strategy by spreading and dewetting of the silver nanowire (AgNW) solution on the vertical aligned carbon nanotube array (ACNTs) for preparing multidimensional aligned nanowires array, based on the elastocapillary coalescence. The unidirectional shrinking of the liquid film on the top of ACNTs happens during the dewetting process, as a result of the elastocapillary coalescence of ACNTs, which drives the AgNWs aligned along normal direction of liquid film shrinkage on the top of ACNTs. Thus, a multidimensional aligned NWs array was prepared, composing of the horizontally oriented NWs of top layer and vertical ACNT bundles of under layer connected by CNT yarns. A bendable flexible electrode was prepared using the as-prepared multidimensional aligned nanowires array, showing high stability during bending cycles (1800 cycles). Moreover, the multidimensional aligned nanowires array is also applicable for fabricating strain sensors, which show stable resistance response under strain. We envision that the as-developed approach shed new light on easy manufacture NW-based micropatterns.

Embedding conductive nanomaterials into elastomeric polymer matrices is one of the most promising approaches for fabricating stretchable strain sensors capable of monitoring large mechanical movements or deformation through the detection of resistance changes. Here, hybrid fillers comprising graphene and silver nanowires (AgNWs) are incorporated into extremely stretchable spandex to fabricate strain sensors. Composites containing only graphene and those containing the graphene/AgNW hybrid fillers are systematically investigated by evaluating their electrical and mechanical properties. The synergistic effect between graphene and AgNWs enable the strain sensors based on the composites to experience a large strain range of up to 120%, and low hysteresis with a high gauge factor of 150.3 at a strain of 120%. These reliable strain sensors are utilized for monitoring human motions such as heartbeats and body movements. The findings of this study indicate the significant applicability of graphene/AgNW/spandex composites in future applications that demand high-performance stretchable strain sensors.
