文摘The severe crosstalk effect is widely present in tactile sensor arrays with a sandwich structure.Here we present a novel design for a resistive tactile sensor array with a coplanar electrode layer and isolated sensing elements,which were made from polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)doped with multiwalled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs)for crosstalk suppression.To optimize its properties,both mechanical and electrical properties of PDMS/MWCNT-sensing materials with different PDMS/MWCNT ratios were investigated.The experimental results demonstrate that a 4 wt% of MWCNTs to PDMS is optimal for the sensing materials.In addition,the pressure-sensitive layer consists of three microstructured layers(two aspectant PDMS/MWCNT-based films and one top PDMS-based film)that are bonded together.Because of this three-layer microstructure design,our proposed tactile sensor array shows sensitivity up to−1.10 kPa^(−1),a response time of 29 ms and reliability in detecting tiny pressures.
