Professor Songfang Zhao's research lab specializes in the design, fabrication, and application of advanced functional materials for flexible and wearable electronics. The lab focuses on developing stretchable and conductive nanomaterials—particularly based on carbon nanomaterials, copper and silver nanowires, and conductive polymers—tailored for high-performance sensors, epidermal electrodes, and energy-efficient human-machine interfaces. Key research directions include multifunctional wearable sensors with self-healing, self-powering, and printing capabilities, as well as bio-integrated devices with high sensitivity, durability, and skin-compliance.

Stretchable and flexible sensors attached onto the surface of the human body can perceive external stimuli, thus attracting extensive attention due to their lightweight, low modulus, low cost, high flexibility, and stretchability. Recently, a myriad of efforts have been devoted to improving the performance and functionality of wearable sensors. Herein, this review focuses on recent remarkable advancements in the development of flexible and stretchable sensors. Multifunction of these wearable sen
Copper nanowires (CuNWs) are attracting a myriad of attention due to their preponderant electric conductivity, optoelectronic and mechanical properties, high electrocatalytic efficiency, and large abundance. Recently, great endeavors are undertaken to develop controllable and facile approaches to synthesize CuNWs with high dispersibility, oxidation resistance, and zero defects for future large-scale nano-enabled materials. Herein, this work provides a comprehensive review of current remarkable a
Recently, stretchable electronics have been highly desirable in the Internet of Things and electronic skins. Herein, an innovative and cost-efficient strategy is demonstrated to fabricate highly sensitive, stretchable, and conductive strain-sensing platforms inspired by the geometries of a spiders slit organ and a lobsters shell. The electrically conductive composites are fabricated via embedding the 3D percolation networks of fragmentized graphene sponges (FGS) in poly(styrene-block-butadiene-b

Flexible strain-driven sensor is an essential component in the flexible electronics. Especially, high durability and sensitivity to strain are required. Here, we present an efficient and low-cost fabrication strategy to construct a highly sensitive and flexible pressure sensor based on a conductive, elastic aerogel with pyramid design. When pressure is loaded, the contact area between the interfaces of the conductive aerogel and the copper electrode as well as among the building blocks of the ni
Epidermal dry electrodes with high skin-compliant stretchability, low bioelectric interfacial impedance, and long-term reliability are crucial for biopotential signal recording and human-machine interaction. However, incorporating these essential characteristics into dry electrodes remains a challenge. Here, a skin-conformal dry electrode is developed by encapsulating kirigami-structured poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/silver nanowires
Chiral recognition of amino acid enantiomers is critical in enhancing drug efficacy, detecting disease markers, and understanding physiological processes. Enantioselective fluorescent identification has gained attention among researchers due to its nontoxicity, easy synthesis, and biocompatibility. In this work, chiral fluorescent carbon dots (CCDs) were produced through a hydrothermal reaction followed by chiral modification. The fluorescent probe, Fe<sup>3+</sup>-CCDs (F-CCDs), was constructed
The curing kinetics and mechanism of epoxy novolac resin (DEN) and modified epoxy novolac resin (MDEN) with methanol etherified amino resin were studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier transforminfrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and chemorheological analysis. Their kinetics parameters and models of the curing were examined utilizing isoconversional methods, Flynn-Wall-Ozawa and Friedman methods. For the DEN mixture, its average activation energy (E a ) was 71.05 kJ/mol an
Recently, it has become highly desirable but remains a challenge to design strain-sensing materials with rational geometric structures that endow the strain sensors high sensitivity, large stretchability and a broad sensing range simultaneously.
