Abstract
A flexible infrared irradiation and temperature sensor is provided. The sensor includes a substantially cubic deformable rubber substrate and a conductive layer embedded in the rubber substrate, wherein the conductive layer comprises a middle portion comprising a composite film of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nickel phthalocyanine (NiPc); and one or more exterior portions comprising carbon nanotubes, wherein the one or more exterior portions do not include NiPc.
Claims9
A flexible infrared irradiation and temperature sensor, comprising:
- a substantially cubic deformable rubber substrate, wherein the substrate has at least three orthogonal surfaces configured to receive infrared irradiation;
- and
- a conductive layer embedded in the rubber substrate on at least one surface of the substrate, wherein the conductive layer comprises
- a middle portion comprising a composite film of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and nickel phthalocyanine (NiPc);
- and
- one or more exterior portions comprising carbon nanotubes, wherein the one or more exterior portions do not include NiPc,
- wherein the surfaces of the substrate not covered with the conductive layer are covered with an opaque dye as an infrared irradiation absorbing layer, and
- wherein the rubber substrate is cubic.
