Flexible sensors made from organic bilayer films of molecular conductor on polymeric matrix
have attracted many interest due to their simple fabrication with high potential for being
scaled up, and for their high-performing multi-functionality at room temperatures. In
particular, the piezoresistive property of the organic bilayer film is among one of the highest
ever reported, allowing its utilization in various sensing applications. In this work, we present
the study of the flexural piezoresistivity of an organic bilayer film based on β-(BEDT-TTF) 2 I …
Flexible sensors made from organic bilayer films of molecular conductor on polymeric matrix have attracted many interest due to their simple fabrication with high potential for being scaled up, and for their high-performing multi-functionality at room temperatures. In particular, the piezoresistive property of the organic bilayer film is among one of the highest ever reported, allowing its utilization in various sensing applications. In this work, we present the study of the flexural piezoresistivity of an organic bilayer film based on β-(BEDT-TTF) 2 I 3 on polycarbonate matrix from room temperatures down to cryogenics temperatures. Non-trivial temperature dependent profile of the gauge factor is revealed, including enhancement of the gauge factor from∼ 18 at room temperatures to∼ 48 at 4.3 K. An organic bilayer cantilever magnetometer is developed and demonstrated to measure magnetic properties of a single crystalline organic superconductor κ-(BEDT-TTF) 2 Cu (N (CN) 2) Br at temperatures down to∼ 2. 75 K and magnetic fields up to 5 T. The high-performing bilayer devices can be fabricated in a very simple manner, and they are robust and recyclable.
