Stretchable piezoelectric elastic composites for sensors and energy generators

Dragan Damjanovic, Frank Nüesch, Tym De Wild, Jose Enrico Quijano Quinsaat

The search for a piezoelectric elastomer that generates an electrical signal when pressed and stretched has increased significantly in the last decade as they hold great promise in harvesting energy from human motion and monitoring human activities. Here, ...

Conductive silicone elastomers electrodes processable by screen printing

Jose Enrico Quijano Quinsaat

Conductive inks consisting of graphene and carbon black conductive fillers into a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix, which can be processed into thin films by screen printing are developed. The influence of filler composition and content on mechanical and ...

Hydrophobization of silver nanoparticles through surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization

Heinrich Hofmann, Frank Nüesch, Jose Enrico Quijano Quinsaat

This work describes the synthesis of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-coated Ag@SiO2 core-shell particles by conducting a Surface-Initiated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (SI-ATRP). Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were first prepared by the polyol synth ...

Continuous Polyol Synthesis of Metal and Metal Oxide Nanoparticles Using a Segmented Flow Tubular Reactor (SFTR)

Paul Bowen, Andrea Testino, Christoph Stähli, Jose Enrico Quijano Quinsaat, Frank Pilger

Over the last years a new type of tubular plug flow reactor, the segmented flow tubular reactor (SFTR), has proven its versatility and robustness through the water-based synthesis of precipitates as varied as CaCO3, BaTiO3, Mn((1-x))Ni(x)C(2)O(4)2H(2)O, YB ...

Dielectric Materials, Design and Realization

Jose Enrico Quijano Quinsaat, Yee Song Ko

It has been the dream of many scientists to create polymeric materials which exhibit simultaneously high dielectric permittivity, low glass transition temperature, and excellent elastic properties. Such materials would be a highly attractive dielectric in ...

Spie-Int Soc Optical Engineering2015

The dielectric permittivity (epsilon') of a polymeric material can be significantly increased when blended with conductive fillers at concentrations approaching the percolation threshold. However, reproducible synthesis of such composites is after decades ...

Two complementary topics are discussed: (i) the continuous production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and (ii) the measurement of reaction yield by X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES). The continuous polyol synthesis of AgNPs in grams amount an ...

Amer Chemical Soc2014

Core/shell nanoparticles having metallic silver nanoparticle cores of similar to 38 nm in diameter and silica shells of different thicknesses ranging from similar to 3.6-20 nm were prepared. For the silica coating, a slightly modified Stober method was use ...
