Abstract
Biointerface sensing is a cutting-edge interdisciplinary field that merges conceptual and practical aspects. Wearable bioelectronics enable efficient interaction and close contact with biological components such as tissues and organs, paving the way for a wide range of medical applications, including personal health monitoring and medical intervention. To be applicable in real-world settings, the patches must be stable and adhere to the skin without causing discomfort or allergies in both wet and dry conditions, as well as other desirable features such as being ultra-soft, thin, flexible, and stretchable. Biosensors have emerged as promising tools primarily used to directly detect biological and electrophysiological signals, enhancing the efficacy of personalized medical treatments and enabling accurate tracking of human well-being. This review highlights the engineering of skin-tissue surfaces/interfaces and their interactions with wearable patches, aiming for both a broad and in-depth understanding of the mechanical and physicochemical properties required for the advancement of flexible and wearable skin patches. Specifically, the advantages of flexible bioelectronics and sensors with optimized surface geometry for long-term diagnosis are discussed. This insight aims to guide the future development of functional materials that can interact with human tissue in a controlled manner. Finally, we provide perspectives on the challenges and potential applications of biointerface engineering in wearable devices.
