Flexible Silk-Based Graphene Bioelectronics For Wearable Multimodal Physiological Monitoring

We introduce a skin-inspired epidermal bioelectronic patch (EBP) with unprecedented integration of graphene on silk with a facile and cost-effective fabrication process, excluding complex ink formulation. We advance the state-of-the-art by directly screen- ...

Investigations on Caesium Dispersion and Molybdenum Coating on SPIDER Components

Michele Fadone

SPIDER is the 100 keV full-size Negative Ion Source prototype of the ITER Neutral Beam Injector, operating at Consorzio RFX in Padova, Italy. The largest Negative Ion Source in the world, SPIDER generates an RF driven plasma from which Deuterium or Hydroge ...

A model for the consolidation of hybrid textiles considering air entrapment, dissolution and diffusion

Véronique Michaud, Vincent Werlen, Christian Rytka

A new model is proposed for the consolidation of hybrid textiles, in which air entrapment and dissolution are considered. One of the key parameters is tow permeability, which is described by the analytical model of Gebart and validated at very high fibre v ...

Thermally Drawn Elastomer Nanocomposites for Soft Mechanical Sensors

Fabien Sorin, Stella Andréa Françoise Laperrousaz, Yunpeng Qu, Andreas Leber, Chaoqun Dong, Inès Richard

Stretchable and conductive nanocomposites are emerging as important constituents of soft mechanical sensors for health monitoring, human-machine interactions, and soft robotics. However, tuning the materials' properties and sensor structures to the targete ...

Status of SPIDER beam source after the first 3.5 years of operation

Michele Fadone

SPIDER is the negative ion source testbed for ITER neutral beam injector. It is currently the largest negative ion source ever built, equipped with a 100 keV accelerator, aiming at producing a negative ion beam with an extracted current density in hydrogen ...

Nanopore Generation in Biodegradable Silk/Magnetic Nanoparticle Membranes by an External Magnetic Field for Implantable Drug Delivery

Jürgen Brugger, Giovanni Boero, Xiao Sheng Zhang, Ya Wang

Implantable devices for localized and controlled drug release are important, e.g., for therapies of cancer and chronic pain. However, most of the existing active implants are limited by the usage of nonbiodegradable materials; thus, surgery is needed to ex ...

Computed Three-Dimensional Atomic Force Microscopy Images of Biopolymers Using the Jarzynski Equality

Marcos Penedo Garcia

Three-dimensional atomic force microscopy (3D-AFM) has resolved three-dimensional distributions of solvent molecules at solid-liquid interfaces at the subnanometer scale. This method is now being extended to the imaging of biopolymer assemblies such as chr ...

Silk granular hydrogels self-reinforced with regenerated silk fibroin fibers

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Peyman Karami, Céline Samira Wyss, Adrien Julien Demongeot

Granular hydrogels with high stability, strength, and toughness are laborious to develop. Post-curing is often employed to bind microgels chemically and enhance mechanical properties. Here a unique strategy was investigated to maintain microgels together w ...

From vesicles to materials: bioinspired strategies for fabricating hierarchically structured soft matter

Esther Amstad

Certain organisms including species of mollusks, polychaetes, onychophorans and arthropods produce exceptional polymeric materials outside their bodies under ambient conditions using concentrated fluid protein precursors. While much is understood about the ...

Out-of-plane permeability measurement for reinforcement textiles: A benchmark exercise

Véronique Michaud, Damiano Salvatori, Baris Çaglar, Amaël Maximilien Cohades

The out-of-plane permeability of two glass fibre fabrics was measured by 26 institutions using silicone oil as a test fluid. Participants in this study were free to select the test procedure, specimen dimensions and data analysis method, provided that test ...
