Ultra‐Flexible Dual‐Band Organic Photodetectors for Visible and Near‐Infrared Sensing
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.An ultra‐flexible dual‐band organic photodetector with a total thickness of 5.6 µm for bio‐sensing is developed. It selectively detects visible and near‐infrared light with high sensitivity by switching the voltage. Peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) measurement is demonstrated using the device attached to a finger under a single light source by ...

Adhesive elastocapillary force on a cantilever beam
Soft Matter, 2019 We measure the force–displacement curve of a cantilever beam in contact with a substrate and with an intervening capillary bridge. This elastocapillary equilibrium represents a physical model of the hairy adhesive pads of insects.

Quantum Electrometry of Non‐Volatile Space Charges in Diamond
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.Charges are generated when nitrogen vacancy qubits in diamond are illuminated by light. Transport and trapping in an electric field leads to the formation of large, stable space charge patterns that dynamically screen applied electric fields, impacting electric field sensing and photoelectric detection.

Study of the Resonant Frequency of Unimorph Triangular V-shaped Piezoelectric Cantilever Energy Harvester [PDF]
International Journal of Advanced Design and Manufacturing Technology, 2015 : The main aim of the vibration energy harvesters is to locally power autonomous devices such as wireless sensors. Generally, power levels are low and the environmental benefit of the technology is to replace batteries rather than saving energy per se ...
