About

V. N. Laukhin is a leading figure in the development of advanced organic electronic materials, with a primary focus on flexible, highly sensitive sensors. His major contributions lie in the design and application of bilayer organic films that exhibit remarkable pyroresistive and piezoresistive properties. In his highly cited 2015 work, "A Highly Sensitive Pyroresistive All‐Organic Infrared Bolometer" (24 citations), Laukhin demonstrated a novel bilayer structure capable of functioning as both a direct-contact thermometer and a passive infrared sensor, detecting a wide range of wavelengths with exceptional speed. This breakthrough paved the way for all-organic, flexible infrared detection. Earlier, in his 2007 paper "High Piezoresistive Organic Film for Plastic Pressure Sensors" (2 citations), he pioneered the use of a conducting microcrystalline layer as a sensitive piezoresistive material for flexible pressure sensors, integrating it with a polymeric diaphragm. Laukhin’s work is notable for its practical, application-driven approach, creating materials that bridge the gap between fundamental organic electronics and real-world, wearable technology. His research continues to inspire innovations in low-cost, flexible, and highly responsive sensing platforms.
