Touchless Optical Finger Motion Tracking Based on 2D Nanosheets with Giant Moisture Responsiveness

摘要

A new optical touchless positioning interface based on ultrasensitive humidity responsive 1D photonic crystals utilizing the giant moisture dependent swelling capacity of 2D phosphatoantimonate nano sheets is presented. The spatially confined, full spectral color change combined with reversible transparency switching induced by the humidity sheath of a human finger allows for real time, true color lateral finger motion tracking under touchless conditions.
