Abstract

Abstract: Flexible sensors have been widely investigated due to their broad application prospects in various flexible electronics. However, most of the presently studied flexible sensors are only suitable for working at room temperature, and their applications at high or low temperatures are still a big challenge. In this work, we present a multimodal flexible sensor based on functional oxide La0.7 Sr0.3 MnO3 (LSMO) thin film deposited on mica substrate. As a strain sensor, it shows excellent sensitivity to mechanical bending and high bending durability (up to 3600 cycles). Moreover, the LSMO/Mica sensor also shows a sensitive response to the magnetic field, implying its multimodal sensing ability. Most importantly, it can work in a wide temperature range from extreme low temperature down to 20 K to high temperature up to 773 K. The flexible sensor based on the flexible LSMO/mica hetero-structure shows great potential applications for flexible electronics using at extreme temperature environment in the future.
