Abstract The electrical resistance Cu film on flexible substrate was investigated in cyclic bending deformation. The electrical resistance of 1 µm thick Cu film on flexible substrate increased up to 120 % after 500,000 cycles in 1.1 % tensile bending strain. Crack and extrusion were observed due to the fatigue damage of metal film. Low bending strain did not cause any damage on metal film but higher bending strain resulted in severe electrical and mechanical damage. Thinner film showed higher fatigue resistance because of the better mechanical property of thin film. Cu film with NiCr under-layer showed poorer fatigue resistance in tensile bending mode. Ni capping layer did not improve the fatigue resistance of Cu film, but Al capping layer suppressed crack formation and lowered electrical resistance change. The NiCr under layer, Ni capping layer, and Al capping layer effect on electrical resistance change of Cu film was compared with Cu only sample.

Abstract Conductive Hydrogels are soft materials which have been used by some researchers as resistive strain sensors in the last years. The electrical resistance change, when the sensor is stretched or compressed, is usually measured by the two-electrode method. This method is not always suitable to measure the electrical resistance of polymers-based materials, like hydrogels, because it could be highly influenced by the electrode/sample interface, as explained in this study. For this reason, a signal conditioning circuit, based on four-electrode impedance measurements, is proposed to measure the electrical resistance change when the gel is stretched or compressed. Experimental results show that the tested gels can be used as resistance force/pressure sensors with a quite linear behaviour.

Electrical Resistance Change

In hostile environments, sensing is critical for many industries such as chemical and oil/gas. Within this industry, the deposition of scales or minerals on various infrastructure components (e.g., pipelines) forms a reliability hazard that needs to be monitored. Therefore, the approach adopted in this study to tackle this issue relies on the use of real-time sensing of specific ions in brine, the natural trigger for ions deposition. In order to do so, electrochemical sensors based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are developed, taking advantage of their unique properties facilitated by different synthesis and fabrication methods. One of these promising synthesis methods is inkjet printing of CNT films since in general, it has exceptional benefits over other approaches that are used to print CNTs. Furthermore, it does not need the use templates. In addition, it is a very fast technique with consistent printing results for many applications along with very low cost on various shapes/formfactors. As these sensors are exposed to a hostile environment (chemical, temperature, etc.), the stability of the CNT films is of great importance. In this study, a comprehensive investigation of the stability of CNT surfaces upon exposure to elements is presented. Accordingly, the several impacts of this interaction on physical properties of the surfaces as a function of interaction time and brine chemical composition are assessed. Moreover, the approach used for investigating the impact of this exposure involves the following: surface electrical resistance change using four probe measurements; surface roughness/topography using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) along Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM); quality of CNT through Raman spectroscopy and wettability using the sessile drop method. The sensing capabilities of the devices are investigated by looking at the sensing selectivity of target ions, resetting capabilities, and sensing sensitivity manifested in the electrical resistance change. Consequently, our results indicate that while inkjet films are very promising sensor material, the fabrication and long term stability require further optimization of the films along with the process to make them meet reliability and lifetime requirements in the oil/gas hostile operational environments.
