Note: the layer order follows the paper (Fig. 6a): skin → sweat accumulation layer and IP gel → SEBS (five 0.8 mm holes; gold IP electrodes underneath; carbon and Ag/AgCl electrodes printed on top) → incubation chamber → PET cover with outlet. Thicknesses are not to scale. The circuit is simplified from Fig. 1c: SPI/I²C are left out, the two MUXes are drawn as one, and the phone is added. The paper does not give the reading order or how cleaning is applied across the four electrodes; these are illustrative. The current bar in step 4 is not real data. Source: Rajendran et al., Nat.

说明:剖面图层的顺序按论文正文(Fig. 6a):皮肤 → 汗液积累层与 IP 凝胶 → SEBS(5 个 0.8 mm 小孔,背面有金 IP 电极,正面印碳和 Ag/AgCl 电极)→ 孵育腔 → 带出口的 PET 盖层;厚度和比例是示意。电路简化自 Fig. 1c:省略了 SPI/I²C 接口,两个 MUX 画成一个,手机是额外画的;四个电极的测量顺序和清洁方式论文没写,图中只是示意。第 4 步电流条只演示「有变化」,不是论文数据。
