Özet
Parylene C is widely used as a passivation layer due to its excellent chemical inertness, electrical insulation, biocompatibility, and flexibility. But, it is a potential piezoelectric material that can be used as a flexible pressure sensor. Herein, the parylene C is synthesized via the chemical vapor deposition method. The flexible piezoelectric, piezoresistive, and capacitive pressure sensors based on parylene C are fabricated. The flexible piezoelectric pressure sensor is used for the first time. The sensing performance of these sensors is comparatively investigated, showing high sensitivities of 140 mV, 0.046 kPa {-{1}} , and 0.080 kPa {-{1}} in the low-pressure range (< 4 kPa), respectively. Furthermore, the response times (0.40, 0.37, and 0.48 s) and the relaxation times (0.21, 0.37, and 0.62 s) are achieved. This work demonstrates that parylene C, which is often used as a passivation layer, can also be used as a flexible piezoresistive and capacitive pressure sensor. It could also be a potential candidate for wearable healthcare monitoring, human-machine interfaces, and soft robotics in the low-pressure range.
