| Description | Journal: Nanotechnology The present study investigates the piezoresistive property of poly-crystalline MoS2 film for strain sensing applications. The gauge factor (GF) of flexible MoS2 device (MoS2/PET) has been calculated to be 102±5 in the stress ranging from ~7 MPa to ~14 MPa. In addition, to improve the sensing stress range, the flexible strain sensors are encapsulated by SU-8. Moreover, the effect of encapsulation layer thickness is reflected in the GF, which attributed to the shifting of the neutral axis. However, the calculated GF is constant in higher stress range, 80±2 and 12±1 for 2 μm and 10 μm thick SU-8, respectively. Herein, we have reported a cost-effective and scalable approach to fabricate large-area poly-crystalline MoS2 based flexible sensors for a wider stress range. The encapsulated devices remained undistorted and intact for stress values beyond 14 MPa. Further, we have demonstrated the durability test of the fabricated sensors with body movements such as hand gestures for all the three types of strain sensors. |
