ABSTRACT
Employing a plasmonic decoupling mechanism, we report the design of a colorimetric pressure sensor that can respond to applied pressure with instant color changes. The sensor consists of a thin film of stacked uniform resorcinol-formaldehyde nanoshells with their inner surfaces functionalized with silver nanoparticles. Upon compression, the flexible polymer nanoshells expand laterally, inducing plasmonic decoupling between neighboring silver nanoparticles and a subsequent blue-shift. The initial color of the sensor is determined by the extent of plasmonic coupling, which can be controlled by tuning the interparticle distance through a seeded growth process. The sensing range can be conveniently customized by controlling the polymer shell thickness or incorporating hybrid nanoshells into various polymer matrices. The new colorimetric pressure sensors are easy to fabricate and highly versatile, allow for convenient tuning of the sensing range, and feature significant color shifts, holding great promise for a wide range of practical applications.
