About
Barbara Stadlober is a leading figure in the field of flexible and imperceptible electronics, with a research focus on ferroelectric transducers, organic diodes, and printed sensor systems for healthcare, robotics, and cyber-physical applications. Her most impactful contribution is the development of an ultraflexible energy harvesting device and biomedical sensor, which integrates ferroelectric polymer transducers with organic diodes to achieve energy autonomy and conformability—a breakthrough that has garnered over 170 citations. Stadlober has also pioneered a paradigm shift in strain sensor design by introducing microstructured single-layer electrodes embedded in P(VDF-TrFE), enabling self-powered, direction-sensitive detection without the need for traditional vertical electrode setups. Her work on printed proximity-sensing surfaces, combining organic pyroelectric sensors with thin-film transistor electronics, further underscores her expertise in scalable, low-cost manufacturing. Additionally, she has advanced multistimuli-responsive hybrid materials, integrating temperature- and humidity-responsive hydrogels with piezoelectric zinc oxide nanorods to enhance electronic skin performance. With a citation count exceeding 250 across her key papers, Stadlober’s innovations are pivotal for next-generation wearable technologies, earning her recognition as a pioneer in imperceptible sensing and energy harvesting.
