Zigzag-shaped Ag nanoplates display unique anisotropic planar structures with unusual jagged edges and relatively large lateral dimensions. These characteristics make such nanoplates promising candidates for metal inks in printed electronics, which can be used for realizing stretchable electrodes. In the synthetic procedure, cyanuric acid was used both as a ligand of the Ag+ ion, hence producing complex structures and controlling the kinetics of the reduction of the cation, and as a capping agent that promoted the lateral growth of the Ag nanoplates. Strain sensors based on nanocomposites of our zigzag-shaped Ag nanoplate and polydimethylsiloxane in the form of a sandwich structure were successfully produced by following a simple, solution-processable method. The strain sensors exhibited extremely high sensitivity, high stretchability with a linear response, and high reliability, all of which allowed the sensor to monitor diverse human motions, including joint movement and phonation. |
