A Mini Review on Recent Advances in MXene Based Electrochemical Wearable Sensing Devices

Abstract

Since the first report of MXenes in 2011, the application prospects of this material have expanded to several fields ranging from energy storage and conversion, optics, electronics, and sensors to a device level integration in these areas. The use of MXenes in sensing devices had led to better conductivity, larger surface areas for enhanced detection of various analytes. In addition, a wide range of functionalization and compositing of these materials has also improved the sensing characteristics. The central objective of this review is to highlight the application of MXenes in wearable sensing devices. This review attempts to detail the reports where MXenes have been used in wearable sensing devices so that the future prospect of the application of these materials can be analyzed. This will help in developing innovative devices that use MXenes and help towards advancing the application of such devices in real life scenarios. Graphical Abstract: (Figure presented.)
