Here, an all-tissue-based piezoresistive pressure sensor with ultrahigh sensitivity and reliability based on the bottom interdigitated tissue electrode and the top bridge of a microporous tissue\/carbon nanotube composite was proposed. Such pressure sensors exhibited ultrahigh sensitivity (\u22481911.4 kPa\u22121), fast response time (&lt;5 ms), low fatigue of over 2000 loading\/unloading cycles, and robust environmental degradability. These enabled sensors can not only monitor the critical physiological signals of the human body but also realize electrothermal conversion at a specific voltage, which enhances the possibility of creating wearable thermotherapy electronics for protecting against rheumatoid arthritis and cervical spondylosis. Furthermore, the sensor successfully transmitted wireless signals to smartphones via Bluetooth, indicating its potential as reliable skin-integrated electronics. This work provides a highly feasible strategy for promoting high-performance wearable thermotherapy electronics for the next-generation artificial skin.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nano10122536","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,17]],"date-time":"2020-12-17T10:42:47Z","timestamp":1608201767000},"page":"2536","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["An Ultrahigh Sensitive Paper-Based Pressure Sensor with Intelligent Thermotherapy for Skin-Integrated Electronics"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6986-5104","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lin","family":"Gao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Electronic Thin Films and Integrated Devices, School of Optoelectronic Science and Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), Jianshe North Road, Chengdu 610054, China"},{"name":"Research Institute for New Materials Technology, Chongqing University of Arts and Sciences, Honghe Avenue, Chongqing 402160, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7484-8114","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Junsheng","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Electronic Thin Films and Integrated Devices, School of Optoelectronic Science and Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), Jianshe North Road, Chengdu 610054, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2343-0233","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ying","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Institute for New Materials Technology, Chongqing University of Arts and Sciences, Honghe Avenue, Chongqing 402160, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peiwen","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Institute for New Materials Technology, Chongqing University of Arts and Sciences, Honghe Avenue, Chongqing 402160, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"Shu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Institute for New Materials Technology, Chongqing University of Arts and Sciences, Honghe Avenue, Chongqing 402160, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiaoyan","family":"Deng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Institute for New Materials Technology, Chongqing University of Arts and Sciences, Honghe Avenue, Chongqing 402160, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lu","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Electronic Thin Films and Integrated Devices, School of Optoelectronic Science and Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), Jianshe North Road, Chengdu 610054, China"},{"name":"Research Institute for New Materials Technology, Chongqing University of Arts and Sciences, Honghe Avenue, Chongqing 402160, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"222","DOI":"10.1038\/nature14002","article-title":"Ultrasensitive mechanical crack-based sensor inspired by the spider sensory system","volume":"516","author":"Kang","year":"2014","journal-title":"Nature"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"473","DOI":"10.1038\/s41586-019-1687-0","article-title":"Skin-integrated wireless haptic interfaces for virtual and augmented reality","volume":"575","author":"Yu","year":"2019","journal-title":"Nature"},{"key":"ref_3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"663","DOI":"10.1038\/s41467-020-14485-9","article-title":"Ultraflexible and transparent electroluminescent skin for real-time and super-resolution imaging of pressure distribution","volume":"11","author":"Lee","year":"2020","journal-title":"Nat.
