In situ growth of graphene on both sides of a Cu-Ni alloy electrode for perovskite solar cells with improved stability

The instability of rear electrodes undermines the long-term operational durability of efficient perovskite solar cells. Here, a composite electrode of copper-nickel (Cu-Ni) alloy stabilized by in situ grown bifacial graphene is designed. The alloying makes ...

Dielectric properties of 3-3 flexible composites by infiltration of elastomers into porous ceramic structures using cellulose scaffold

Thomas Geiger

Elastomer composites are prepared by infiltrating polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) into a porous ceramic structure of nanoparticles. This method differs from the conventional approach, where particles are dispersed into the polymer matrix, since here, the polym ...

Resin Transfer molding of High-Fluidity Polyamide-6 with modified Glass-Fabric preforms

Véronique Michaud, Damiano Salvatori, Baris Çaglar, Robin Samuel Trigueira, Colin Gomez

In Resin Transfer Molding (RTM), resin precursors of thermoset or, more recently, thermoplastic polymers are generally employed, raising issues related to the chemical reaction taking place during and after part processing. In this study, already polymeriz ...

Nematic Ordering of Anisotropic Nanoparticles in Block Copolymers

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

Block copolymer melts have been previously used to control the position and alignment of anisotropic nanoparticles. In this work, 2D and 3D mesoscopic simulations are used to explore the phase behavior of block copolymer/nanoparticle systems. The method co ...

In-situ laser sintering for the fabrication of fully 3D printed electronics composed of elastomeric materials

Danick Briand, Ryan Mitchell van Dommelen, Rubaiyet Iftekharul Haque, Sébastien Lani, Olivier Rémy Henry Chandran

In-situ laser sintering can be used to locally sinter conductive inks in an uninterrupted process, enabling the embedding of printed electronics within 3D printed structures. In this work we apply a laser sintering method to create highly conductive silver ...

Evaluation of dielectric elastomers to develop materials suitable for actuation

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Jonathan André Jean-Marie Chavanne, Morgan Almanza

Electroactive polymers based on dielectric elastomers are stretchable and compressible capacitors that can act as transducers between electrical and mechanical energies. Depending on the targeted application, soft actuators, sensors or mechanical-energy ha ...

Influence of electric field, temperature, humidity, elastomer material, and encapsulation on the lifetime of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) under DC actuation

Herbert Shea, Fabio Beco Albuquerque

We present the effect of electric field, temperature, humidity, type of elastomer material, and encapsulation on the lifetime of silicone-based dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) under DC electric fields. DEAs are promising soft actuators, but little ha ...
