In the rapidly evolving field of decentralized and personalized healthcare, the demand for seamless integration of multimodal biosensing systems with the human body is increasing. This study develops ultraflexible organic photodetectors (OPDs) that exhibit exceptional performance and long-term stability, enabling the construction of a skin-integrated multimodal system for time-synchronized monitoring of photoelectric and biopotential signals.
In the fast-evolving landscape of decentralized and personalized healthcare, the need for multimodal biosensing systems that integrate seamlessly with the human body is growing rapidly. This presents a significant challenge in devising ultraflexible configurations that can accommodate multiple sensors and designing high-performance sensing components that remain stable over long periods. To overcome these challenges, ultraflexible organic photodetectors (OPDs) that exhibit exceptional performance under near-infrared illumination while maintaining long-term stability are developed. These ultraflexible OPDs demonstrate a photoresponsivity of 0.53 A W-1 under 940 nm, shot-noise-limited specific detectivity of 3.4 x 1013 Jones, and cut-off response frequency beyond 1 MHz at -3 dB. As a result, the flexible photoplethysmography sensor boasts a high signal-to-noise ratio and stable peak-to-peak amplitude under hypoxic and hypoperfusion conditions, outperforming commercial finger pulse oximeters. This ensures precise extraction of blood oxygen saturation in dynamic working conditions. Ultraflexible OPDs are further integrated with conductive polymer electrodes on an ultrathin hydrogel substrate, allowing for direct interface with soft and dynamic skin. This skin-integrated sensing platform provides accurate measurement of photoelectric and biopotential signals in a time-synchronized manner, reproducing the functionality of conventional technologies without their inherent limitations. Ultraflexible organic photodetectors (OPDs) exhibiting high performance at near-infrared wavelengths are developed, based on which a skin-integrated multimodal system enabling time-synchronized monitoring of photoelectric and biopotential signals is constructed. The sub-20 mu m-thick system comprises OPDs, conductive bioelectrodes, and a hydrogel substrate. The seamless integration between the sensing components and the skin enables precise tracking of multiple vital signs with long-term stability.image
