We have invented a new inorganic material that generates luminescence in response to an external mechanical stress (it is named elastico-luminescent material). This elastico-luminescent material possesses the ability to emit light repeatedly in response to an external mechanical stress such as tension, compression, torsion, friction or impact. With its luminescence intensity being proportionate to the strength of the external stress applied, this new material offers great potential as a sensing material. Currently, we are carrying out a study on a technique for fixing elastico-luminescent material as nanoparticles or thin films on a sensing object, and further, a technology for manipulating it into new self-sufficient optical application sensing devices. It is an entirely new technology and thus it is attracting inquiries from various kinds of fields regarding its potential for industrial applications as well as for academic research. Stress distribution can be visualized directly and dynamically at any scale from objects at micro- and nano- scales that are difficult to treat with existing sensing technologies to structures on a large scale such as in industrial facilities.
