Artificial Skin: Ionic Skin with Biomimetic Dielectric Layer Templated from Calathea Zebrine Leaf (Adv. Funct. Mater. 37/2018)

In article number 1802343, Chuan Fei Guo and co-workers report a new approach to artificial skin based on the unique leaf structure of Calathea zebrine. Fast response time, a very low limit of detection and good sensitivity promise application of the artificial skin in human–machine interaction, motion detection, and artificial intelligence.
