Background
With the popularization of flexible electronic devices, flexible transparent stress sensors have attracted extensive attention of people. For example, in the field of flexible touch screens, the screen unlocking function of Huashi flexible screen mobile phone Mate Xs is realized by adopting a flexible transparent stress sensor behind a screen backboard. In the field of flexible transparent wearable devices, "stealth" and "non-feel" characteristics can increase wearer comfort and aesthetics, an important feature of future flexible sensors. Therefore, the development of flexible transparent stress sensors is of great significance.
