Electronic skin, which has pixels composed of various functional sensors and can be applied to robots and various medical devices by mimicking the human skin, requires flexible, multi-mode, high-sensitivity, and low-interference sensors. In this study, we used a flexible electrode material comprised of organic conductor-elastomer-metal nanoparticles, as the core material and the inkjet printing method as the core process. These were used to form a flexible sensor for electronic skin applications, which involved vertically laminated sensors that utilize different sensing principles, thus enabling the realization of a flexible bimodal sensor with negligible interference. The pressure sensor with low resistivity and a flexible electrode, which was implemented using the sophisticated synthesis method, performed well under low-voltage (0.5 mV) operation conditions, exhibited pressure sensitivity over a wide range (3 Pa to 5 kPa), and showed excellent reliability characteristics (100,000 cycles) that can withstand severe mechanical stress. The temperature sensor, which was formed by a long bent organic conductor-metal line, changes its resistance with temperature, has a resistance change sensitivity of 0.32% per degree of temperature change, and exhibits a hysteresis-free temperature sensing capability. In particular, this device has maintained its robustness even over 5000 bending cycles. The 25 pixels temperature-pressure bimodal sensor array demonstrates very fast response rates, high sensitivity, and negligible interference performance. The low-resistivity/high-flexibility conducting electrode, inkjet printing process, device architecture, and integration scheme proposed in this study are expected to be widely used for electronic skin, multi-mode sensors, and flexible devices.
