  • Abstract
    Using a new device concept, a unique semiconductor strain sensor has been demonstrated in the laboratory. It is a p-n heterojunction diode which is fabricated by vacuum evaporation techniques directly onto flexible substrate. This sensor´s mechanical input properties are controlled by the choice of substrate, and it has a low-impedance voltage source output characteristic.
