However, the conventional optical fiber materials are limited to hard glass or plastic, and although the optical fiber materials have good light transmission capability, the optical fiber materials cannot be suitable for flexible and complex human body deformation, so that the application of the optical fiber materials in the field of novel wearable equipment is limited.
The hydrogel is a colloidal material formed by crosslinking hydrophilic macromolecules in water, is soft and tough, and has better deformability. The optical fiber material can bear large elongation, bending and pressure deformation after being processed into the optical fiber material. The sodium alginate/PEGDA gel optical fiber prepared by foreign researchers through a template method not only is long in preparation time, but also is extremely easy to dehydrate and difficult to use for a long time. Other existing methods are also based on a template method to prepare the gel optical fiber, but are limited by complex processing modes and factors which are easily influenced by the environment, and the currently reported hydrogel optical fiber cannot meet the requirements of actual production and application.
