- Humans rely increasingly on sensors to address grand challenges and to improve quality of life in the era of digitalization and big data. For ubiquitous sensing, flexible sensors are developed to overcome the limitations of conventional rigid counterparts. Despite rapid advancement in bench-side research over the last decade, the market adoption of flexible sensors remains limited. To ease and to expedite their deployment, here, we identify bottlenecks hindering the maturation of flexible sensors and propose promising solutions. We first analyze challenges in achieving satisfactory sensing performance for real-world applications and then summarize issues in compatible sensor-biology interfaces, followed by brief discussions on powering and connecting sensor networks. Issues en route to commercialization and for sustainable growth of the sector are also analyzed, highlighting environmental concerns and emphasizing nontechnical issues such as business, regulatory, and ethical considerations. Additionally, we look at future intelligent flexible sensors. In proposing a comprehensive roadmap, we hope to steer research efforts towards common goals and to guide coordinated development strategies from disparate communities. Through such collaborative efforts, scientific breakthroughs can be made sooner and capitalized for the betterment of humanity.

- The high price and toxicity of ionic liquids (ILs) have limited the design and application of supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs) for CO2 separation in both academic and industrial fields. In this work, [Choline][Pro]/polyethylene glycol 200 (PEG200) mixtures were selected to prepare novel SILMs because of their green and cost-effective characterization, and the CO2/N2 separation with the prepared SILMs was investigated experimentally at temperatures from 308.15 to 343.15 K. The temperature effect on the permeability, solubility and diffusivity of CO2 was modeled with the Arrhenius equation. A competitive performance of the prepared SILMs was observed with high CO2 permeability ranged in 343.3-1798.6 barrer and high CO2/N2 selectivity from 7.9 to 34.8. It was also found that the CO2 permeability increased 3 times by decreasing the viscosity of liquids from 370 to 38 mPa·s. In addition, the inherent mechanism behind the significant permeability enhancement was revealed based on the diffusion-reaction theory, i.e. with the addition of PEG200, the overall resistance was substantially decreased and the SILMs process was switched from diffusion-control to reaction-control.
