Abstract

See full text

A printed graphene-based laminate for wireless wearable communications can be processed at low temperature so that it is compatible with heat-sensitive flexible materials like papers and textiles. The printed graphene-based laminate is of high conductivity, high flexibility, light weight and low cost, making it perfect candidate for wireless wearable devices. As a proof of concept, printed graphene-based laminate enabled transmission lines (TLs) and antennas were designed, fabricated and characterized. To explore its potentials in wearable communications applications, mechanically flexible transmission lines and antennas under various bended cases were experimentally studied. The measurement results demonstrate that the printed graphene laminate can be used for RF signal transmitting, radiating and receiving, which represents some of the essential functionalities of RF signal processing in wireless wearable communications systems. This work brings a step closer the prospect to implement all graphene enabled wireless wearable communications systems in the near future.
