Nanostructural and piezoelectric characterization of electro-formed δ-phase poly(vinylidene fluoride) thin films

open access: yesMaterials Research Letters, 2023
Ferroelectric polymer PVDF possesses different polymorphs. Solution-processed thin films crystallize mostly into the paraelectric α-phase. From α-PVDF, the electroactive phases β-, γ-, δ-PVDF can be achieved by further treatments.

Buckling Porous SiC Membranes

open access: yesProceedings, 2018
In preliminary studies it could be shown that single crystalline silicon carbide wafers can be porosified with metal assisted photochemical etching. Furthermore, the generation of porous areas which are locally defined is possible with this method.

Tuneable Q-Factor of MEMS Cantilevers with Integrated Piezoelectric Thin Films

open access: yesProceedings, 2017
When targeting the integration of atomic force microscopes (AFM) into vacuum environments (e.g., scanning electron microscopes), a tunable Q-factor of the resonating AFM cantilever is a key feature to enable high speed measurements with high local ...

Carbon Nanotube Actuators

open access: yesScience, 1999
Electromechanical actuators based on sheets of single-walled carbon nanotubes were shown to generate higher stresses than natural muscle and higher strains than high-modulus ferroelectrics. Like natural muscles, the macroscopic actuators are assemblies of billions of individual nanoscale actuators.
