Abstract

In this work, a display integrated flexible and transparent sensor array is prepared to simultaneously realize pyroelectric gesture recognition and piezoelectric touch control based on in-situ polarization of PVDF-TrFE film. The in-situ polarization approach ensures 300 × 340 mm2 large-area PVDF-TrFE film with high uniform pyroelectricity and significantly improves polarization efficiency and production yield. For gesture recognition, the prepared sensor array can accurately detect 0.5 ℃ temperature change and track motion trace of human hand gesture with a distance of 10 cm, and the temperature-voltage linearity is higher than 99 %. For touch control, the prepared sensor array can achieve a touch resolution of 1 mm and reach a signal-to-noise ratio of 400 %. Besides, the display integrated sensor array possesses a good transmittance of 90 % and high flexibility with a bending degree of 180°. The gesture recognition/touch control sensor array is expected to be applied in the fields of wearable electronic products and multi-functional of displays.
