About
Huihua Xu is a leading researcher in the field of flexible and wearable electronics, with a primary focus on developing high-performance strain and pressure sensors for human–machine interfaces and electronic skin applications. Her major contributions center on overcoming the longstanding trade-off between sensitivity and stretchability in strain sensors. In her highly cited 2018 work (92 citations), Xu introduced a multiscale nanowire-microfluidic hybrid architecture that achieves both high sensitivity and exceptional stretchability, a breakthrough that has influenced subsequent designs in soft robotics and health monitoring. She further advanced pressure-sensing technology in 2019 (81 citations) by developing a high-performance sensor using a simple, cost-effective transfer technique that creates a 3D microstructure from rough PEDOT:PSS films on abrasive paper. This innovative approach mimics the tactile sensing of human skin while enabling scalable fabrication. With her work collectively garnering significant attention, Xu is recognized for pushing the boundaries of sensor performance and manufacturability, making her a key figure in the next generation of wearable, skin-like electronics.
