The CFRP is encapsulated with a ≈10.6 - μm-thick resin layer, although the surface roughness and temperature sensitivity of the substrate are not ideal for the fabrication of electronic devices, we present depletion mode TFTs exhibiting a field effect mobility of 18.3 cm2V-1s-1, and a common source amplifier, providing a voltage gain of 8 dB and a -3 dB cutoff frequency of 11.5 kHz. The amplifier does not require any input bias voltage and can, hence, be directly used to condition signals originating from various transducers, e.g., piezoelectric strain sensors used to monitor the structural integrity of CFRP elements. This opens the way to the fabrication of smart mechanical CFRP parts with integrated structural integrity monitoring systems.
