Abstract
Flexible sensing electronics have received extensive attention for their potential applications in wearable human health monitoring and care systems. Given that the normal physiological activities of the human body are primarily based on a relatively constant body temperature, real-time monitoring of body surface temperature using temperature sensors is one of the most intuitive and effective methods to understand physical conditions. With its outstanding electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties, graphene emerges as a promising candidate for the development of flexible and wearable temperature sensors. In this review, the recent progress of graphene-based wearable temperature sensors is summarized, including material preparation, working principle, performance index, classification, and related applications. Finally, the challenges and future research emphasis in this field are put forward. This review provides important guidance for designing novel and intelligent wearable temperature-sensing systems.
