Transparent stretchable (TS) sensors capable of detecting and distinguishing touch and pressure inputs are a promising development in wearable electronics. However, realization of such a device has been limited by difficulties in achieving optical transparency, stretchability, high sensitivity, stability, and distinguishable responsivity to two stimuli simultaneously. Herein, we report a TS sensor in which touch and pressure stimuli can be detected and distinguished on a substrate with a stress-relieving three-dimensional (3D) microstructured pattern providing multidirectional stretchability and increased pressure sensitivity. The TS capacitive device structure is a dielectric layer sandwiched between an upper piezoresistive electrode of a poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate)/ionic liquid composite, which enables touch and pressure stimuli to be distinguished, and a lower electrode of metal/indium tin oxide/metal multilayer. The TS sensor array was demonstrated as a wearable input device for controlling a small vehicle. The TS touch-pressure sensor has great potential to be used as a multimodal input device for future wearable electronics.
