dc.description.abstract | The true integration of electronics into textiles requires the fabrication of devices directly on
the fibre itself using high performance materials that allow seamless incorporation into
fabrics. Woven electronics and opto-electronics, attained by intertwined fibres with
complementary functions are the emerging and most ambitious technological and scientific
frontier. Here we pioneer graphene-enabled functional devices directly fabricated on textile
fibres and for the very first time also attained by weaving graphene electronic fibres in a
fabric. Capacitive touch-sensors and light-emitting devices were produced using a novel roll
to-roll-compatible patterning technique, opening new avenues for woven textile electronics.
Finally, the demonstration of fabric-enabled pixels for displays and position sensitivefunctions is a gateway for novel electronic-skin, wearable electronic and smart textile
applications. | en_GB |
