In this study, a basic design of area-arrayed graphene nanoribbon (GNR) strain sensors was proposed to realize the next generation of strain sensors. To fabricate the area-arrayed GNRs, a top-down approach was employed, in which GNRs were cut out from a large graphene sheet using an electron beam lithography technique. GNRs with widths of 400 nm, 300 nm, 200 nm, and 50 nm were fabricated, and their current-voltage characteristics were evaluated. The current values of GNRs with widths of 200 nm and above increased linearly with increasing applied voltage, indicating that these GNRs were metallic conductors and a good ohmic junction was formed between graphene and the electrode. There were two types of GNRs with a width of 50 nm, one with a linear current–voltage relationship and the other with a nonlinear one. We evaluated the strain sensitivity of the 50 nm GNR exhibiting metallic conduction by applying a four-point bending test, and found that the gauge factor of this GNR was about 50. Thus, GNRs with a width of about 50 nm can be used to realize a highly sensitive strain sensor.

Abstract Effects of moderate straining speed on the material and damage characteristics of beam samples of graphite/epoxy and E-glass/epoxy composites were investigated. The basic fiber architecture utilized was unidirectional, axial layup, but data was also obtained for the 45-degree orientation. Ultrasonic and acoustic emission (AE) inspections were utilized. The acoustic emission records show matrix cracking. The ultrasonic images revealed the regions of failure. The results show that in general, strain rate notably affects material and damage properties.
