Abstract

Abstract: In searching for unique and unexplored 2D materials, the authors try to investigate for the very first time the use of delaminated V‐MXene coupled with precious metal ruthenium (Ru) through atomic layer deposition (ALD) for various contact and noncontact mode of real‐time temperature sensing applications at the human–machine interface. The novel delaminated V‐MXene (DM‐V2 CT x ) engineered ruthenium‐ALD (Ru‐ALD) temperature sensor demonstrates a competitive sensing performance of 1.11% °C −1 as of only V‐MXene of 0.42% °C −1 . A nearly threefold increase in sensing and reversibility performance linked to the highly ordered few‐layered V‐MXene and selective, well‐controlled Ru atomic doping by ALD for the successful formation of Ru@DM‐V2 CT X heterostructure. The advanced heterostructure formation, the mechanism, and the role of Ru have been comprehensively investigated by ultra‐high‐resolution transmission/scanning transmission electron microscopies coupled with next‐generation spherical aberration correction technology and fast, accurate elemental mapping quantifications, also by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. To the knowledge, this work is the first to use the novel, optimally processed V‐MXene over conventionally used Ti‐MXene and its surface‐internal structure engineering by Ru‐ALD process‐based temperature‐sensing devices function and operational demonstrations. The current work could potentially motivate the development of multifunctional, future, next‐generation, safe, personal healthcare electronic devices by the industrially scalable ALD technique. Abstract : Exploring the unique 2D layered materials, delaminated V‐MXene empowered by precious metal ruthenium (Ru) engineering through atomic layer deposition (ALD) techniques in real‐time human–machine sensing interface devices. The precisely controlled incorporation of precious metal Ru by ALD and successful formation of ALD‐Ru@V‐MXene advanced heterostructure demonstrates the ideal sensing performance device, underscoring the importance of next‐generation safe, wearable healthcare soft electronics.
