Abstract:
This paper develops a simple, cost-effective, fully Inkjet-printed flexible temperature sensor with easy fabrication steps using PiXDRO LP50 inkjet printer. The thermistor sensor employed a Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT: PSS) as a temperature-sensitive layer with silver nanoparticles (AgNps) as a contact electrode. The sensor performance was evaluated on different dimensions and types of substrates. Epson Glossy paper with 255 mu m thickness and Polyimide (Kapton HN) with 50 mu m thickness were used over temperatures ranging from room temperature up to 50 degrees C and 90 degrees C for paper and Kapton substrates, respectively. The sensor developed over Glossy paper showed the best sensitivity of 1.67 %/degrees C in the chosen temperature range while the sensor showed C0.113%/degrees C on PI substrate.
