Abstract

In this study, a multilayered structure of gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and graphene oxide (GO) was prepared by combination of Langmuir–Blodgett and Langmuir–Schaefer techniques, and the structure was tested for response to strain. The thin films consisting of ligand-capped Au NPs and medium-sized GO flakes were deposited on polyethylene terephthalate-based interdigitated microelectrodes, which exhibited a high gauge factor and good reproducibility. The results are mainly discussed in terms of the bridging role of Au NPs in enhancing electrical conductivity of the GO network and the sensor performance as well. This kind of sensor appears to have high potential to be further developed for practical use.
