Puckett Professor of Mechanics and Materials at SEAS and senior author of the paper. <\/p>\n<p>The research is published in the <i>Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences<\/i>. <\/p>\n<p>The thermometer consists of three simple parts: an electrolyte, an electrode, and a dielectric material to separate the two. The electrolyte\/dielectric interface accumulates ions while the dielectric\/electrode interface accumulates electrons. The charge imbalance between the two sets up an ionic cloud in the electrolyte. When the temperature changes, the ionic cloud changes thickness and a voltage is generated. The voltage is sensitive to temperature, but insensitive to stretch. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"mb-4\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\">\n    <meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"A soft, stretchable thermometer\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch\/?v=AJN6OTZAe14\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"A soft, stretchable thermometer\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2022-01-24T16:40:53-05:00\"\/><br \/>\n        <meta itemprop=\"embedUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AJN6OTZAe14\"\/><br \/>\n    <meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/AJN6OTZAe14\/maxresdefault.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>             <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"A stretchable thermometer for soft robots\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AJN6OTZAe14?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;Because the design is so simple, there are so many different ways to customize the sensor, depending on the application,&#8221; said Yecheng Wang, a postdoctoral fellow at SEAS and first author of the paper. &#8220;You can choose different materials, arranged in different ways and optimized for different tasks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>By arranging the electrolyte, dielectric, and electrode in different configurations, the researchers developed four designs for the temperature sensor. In one test, they integrated the sensor into a soft gripper and measured the temperature of a hot hard boiled egg. The sensors are more sensitive than traditional thermoelectric thermometers and can respond to changes in temperature within about 10 milliseconds. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We demonstrated that these sensors can be made small, stable, and even transparent,&#8221; said Wang. <\/p>\n<p>Depending on the materials used, the thermometer can measure temperatures upwards of 200 degrees Celsius or as cold as -100 degrees Celsius. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This highly customizable platform could usher in new developments to enable and improve the internet of everything and everyone,&#8221; said Suo.<\/p>\n<p>The research was co-authored by Kun Jia, Shuwen Zhang, Hyeong Jun Kim, Yang Bai and Ryan C.
