Abstract

Abstract : In article number1800020, Ling Zhang, Chunzhong Li, and co‐workers develop a binary hybrid network based on a large‐sized gold nanowire backbone network and a small‐sized silver nanowire network for highly stretchable, sensitive, and transparent strain sensors. The combination of the two networks provides outstanding photoelectric properties, and contributes to extraordinary sensitivity in a large strain range. The sensor is capable of detecting various activities including smiling, drinking, and finger bending, indicating great potential as an invisible wearable strain sensor.
