Abstract

Graphene has become one of the most readily used materials in wearable sensing technology due to its unique properties of lightweight, ultrahigh carrier mobility, good environmental stability and robust mechanical flexibility. However, efforts based on graphene have still rarely been made for fabricating device-level wearable sensors. In addition, few review articles related to these aspects have been reported. In this work, recent research progress of wearable graphene sensors for healthcare, motion detections, and environment monitoring, is briefly reviewed. Also, the challenges and perspectives for the future generation of wearable graphene sensors are also highlighted. This work provides a comprehensive understanding on the present research situations and challenges for wearable graphene devices for sensing.
