Researchers Develop New Graphene-based Sensor Technology for Wearable Medical Devices
Researchers at AMBER, the SFI Centre for Advanced Materials and BioEngineering Research, and from Trinity’s School of Physics, have developed next-generation, graphene-based sensing technology using their innovative G-Putty material.
The team’s printed sensors are 50 times more sensitive than the industry standard and outperform other comparable nano-enabled sensors in an important metric seen as a game-changer in the industry: flexibility.
Maximising sensitivity and flexibility without reducing performance makes the teams’ technology an ideal candidate for the emerging areas of wearable electronics and medical diagnostic devices.
The team – led by Professor Jonathan Coleman from Trinity’s School of Physics, one of the world’s leading nanoscientists – demonstrated that they can produce a low-cost, printed, graphene
