Printable Flexible Electronics with Nanomaterials Heterostructures (PFLEX)
Abstract
PFLEX supports the National Defense Strategy’s priority to deepen defense cooperation between the United States and partner nations. This project, conducted in partnership with India’s Defense Research and Development Organization, prototyped a wearable microelectronic sensor system for environmental monitoring of potentially hazardous confined spaces. The PFLEX project demonstrated prototype units implementing a flexible electronic system architecture combined with oxygen and broad-band volatile organic compound sensors. In FY 2019, fabrication of the prototype advanced flexible sensor was completed and underwent testing and experimentation to characterize performance. The prototype units transitioned to the U.S. Air Force for testing and follow-on development activities.
