Abstract
Inspired by the versatility of the direct laser writing carbonization (DLWc) technique as well as the metal-ion-assisted coordination polymer of 3,4,9,10-perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA), in the present study, we present a DLWc-enabled approach for cost-effectively fabricating a poly-peri-naphthalene (PPN) thin film with the advantages of patternability, environmental benignity, and scalability. Optical and scanning electron microscopy, as well as ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared, Fourier transform infrared, Raman, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, were performed to confirm that the spray-coated thin film of the Mg-PTCDA coordination polymer can be in situ converted into a PPN thin film upon CO2 laser irradiation. The effects of the laser power and Mg2+ concentration on the structure and electrical properties of the laser-processed PPN thin films were investigated. Lastly, we demonstrated that the laser-processed PPN thin films can be used for humidity sensing with characteristics of a rapid response time and excellent hysteresis. It is expected that this new method for fabricating PPN thin films will lead to a wide range of applications of PPN in the fields of sensing, electronics, and energy storage.

Abstract
With the demand for healthy life and the great advancement of flexible electronics, flexible sensors are playing an irreplaceably important role in healthcare monitoring, wearable devices, clinic treatment, and so on. In particular, the design and application of polyimide (PI)-based sensors are emerging swiftly. However, the tremendous potential of PI in sensors is not deeply understood. This review focuses on recent studies in advanced applications of PI in flexible sensors, including PI nanofibers prepared by electrospinning as flexible substrates, PI aerogels as friction layers in triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), PI films as sensitive layers based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) in relative humidity (RH) sensors, photosensitive PI (PSPI) as sacrificial layers, and more. The simple laser-induced graphene (LIG) technique is also introduced in the application of PI graphitization to graphene. Finally, the prospect of PIs in the field of electronics is proposed in the review.

Abstract
The mixture of graphene oxide and noble metal nanoparticles has been widely used in flexible multifunctional sensors. Femtosecond lasers are regarded as useful tools for sensor fabrication through direct inscribing. Normally, the laser power is adjusted to optimize the sensing performances. However, the process between the laser and the sample can be effectively altered by the temporal distribution of the pulse and the laser wavelength. This paper proposes a controllable photoreduction of graphene oxide/gold composite method using a shaped femtosecond laser and promotes its application on multifunctional sensors. Different from the strong reliance of the photoreduction process on laser fluence, femtosecond laser shaping expands the controllability range of the photoreduction degree. By combining the parameters of fluence, temporal distribution, laser wavelength, humidity, and strain multifunctional sensors can be both optimized by controlling the laser reduction. The strain sensor exhibits good linearity with a gauge factor of 67.2 in a strain range of 28.2%; the sensitivity of the humidity sensor is improved by 68.4%. The humidity sensor maintains its performance after 28 days, and the strain sensor maintains its stability after 5000 cycles of stretching. The multifunctional sensor can be applied to detect human breath and human pulse and holds value for human health monitoring.
