Flow-sensory contact electrification of graphene

Electrical nano-sensors hold promise for biofluid interrogation, but their performance is still below the state of the art. Here, self-powered monolayer graphene microelectrodes are shown to enable real-time interrogation of whole-blood flows with 6-month stability and sub-micron/second resolution.
