摘要

PVA/GO/h-BN Janus films are fabricated by a simple density deposition self-assembly method without assistance of interface or auxiliary equipment

which just utilize the density difference between GO and h-BN during water evaporation. The acquired Janus films show diverse applications

such as sensing & actuating

electronic skins

soft actuators

flexible sensors.

Abstract

Janus films with asymmetric physical/chemical properties have attracted considerable attention due to their promising applications in personal thermal management

electronic skins

sensors

actuators

etc

. However

traditional methods for fabricating Janus films conventionally need the assistance of an interface o

r auxiliary equipment

which are usually complex and time-consuming. Herein

flexible poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/graphene oxide (GO)/h-BN (recorded as PVA/GO/h-BN) Janus films with thermally

optically

and electrically anisotropic properties are fabricated by a simple density deposition self-assembly method

which just utilizes the density difference between GO and h-BN during water evaporation. Experimental results show that the two sides of the acquired Janus films have obvious asymmetric characteristics. In the original state of the PVA/GO/h-BN Janus films

the thermal conductivity of the GO side (10.06 W·m

–1

·K

–1

) is generally lower than that of the h-BN side (10.48 W·m

–1

·K

–1

). But after GO is reduced

the thermal conductivity of the rGO side reaches 12.17 W·m

–1

·K

–1

surpassing that of the h-BN side. In addition

the relative reflectance of the h-BN side of Janus film is also significantly higher than that of the rGO side

and the surface resistance difference between the two sides is about 4 orders of magnitude. The prepared PVA/GO/h-BN Janus films show great application potential in human thermal management

light conversion switches

and electronic skins. This study provides a simple and versatile strategy for fabricating Janus films with multifunctional (such as thermal

optical

and electrical) anisotropies.
