Abstract

Abstract : In article number1800307, Serin Lee, Jinwon Oh, Steve Park, and co‐workers demonstrate a highly sensitive bending sensor integrated with energy harvesting capability. By controlling the crack formation on Pt electrodes, the sensitivity of the bending sensor was enhanced. A triboelectric layer on top of the bending sensor enables power generation with gentle finger tapping. This technology can be highly useful for various portable and wearable flexible electronic applications.
