Wearable Triboelectric Generator based on a Hybrid Mix of Carbon Nanotube and Polymer Layers

Jürgen Brugger

A novel single-layer structured triboelectric generator (TEG) is proposed with a hybrid mix of carbon nanotube (CNT) and silk. Here, the mixing of two materials in liquid phase for proven effective power generation is shown. In this research, CNT provides ...

Microstructured Multimaterial Fibers for Microfluidic Sensing

Fabien Sorin, Wei Yan, Alexis Gérald Page, Dang Tùng Nguyen, Chaoqun Dong

The thermal drawing of a uniform capillary-like fiber that integrates an encapsulated microchannel and an embedded capacitor system within a polymeric cladding is demonstrated. Such a fiber construct has versatile functionalities applicable to microfluidic ...

Charge Accumulation, Recombination, and Their Associated Time Scale in Efficient (GUA)(x)(MA)(1-x)PbI3-Based Perovskite Solar Cells

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Pankaj Kumar Yadav, Daniel Prochowicz, Mohammad Mahdi Tavakoli, Anwar Qasem M Alanazi

Here, we study the influence of guanidinium (GUA) ions on the open-circuit voltage (V-oc) in the (GUA)(x)(MA)(1-x)PbI3 based perovskite solar cells. We demonstrate that incorporation of GUA forms electronic and ionic accumulation regions at the interface o ...

Static negative capacitance of a ferroelectric nano-domain nucleus

Nava Setter, Tomas Sluka, Pavel Mokry

Miniaturization of conventional field effect transistors (FETs) approaches the fundamental limits beyond which opening and closing the transistor channel require higher gate voltage swing and cause higher power dissipation and heating. This problem could b ...
