The effect of changing electrode metal on solution-processed flexible titanium dioxide memristors [PDF]
Flexible solution processed memristors show different behaviour dependent on the choice of electrode material. Use of gold for both electrodes leads to switchable WORM (Write Once Read Many times) resistive devices. Use of aluminium for both electrodes increases the richness of behaviour allowing both curved and triangular memristive switching ...

Method for producing edge geometry superconducting tunnel junctions utilizing an NbN/MgO/NbN thin film structure [PDF]
A method for fabricating an edge geometry superconducting tunnel junction device is discussed. The device is comprised of two niobium nitride superconducting electrodes and a magnesium oxide tunnel barrier sandwiched between the two electrodes.

Nanometer-spaced platinum electrodes with calibrated separation
We have fabricated pairs of platinum electrodes with separation between 20 and 3.5 nm. Our technique combines electron beam lithography and chemical electrodeposition. We show that the measurement of the conductance between the two electrodes through the

Evaluation of a low-cost and low-noise active dry electrode for long-term biopotential recording
Wet Ag/AgCl electrodes, although very popular in clinical diagnosis, are not appropriate for expanding applications of wearable biopotential recording systems which are used repetitively and for a long time.

Spark plasma sintered carbon electrodes for electrical double layer capacitor applications [PDF]
The spark plasma sintering (SPS) is an emerging process for shaping any type of materials (metals, ceramic, polymers and their composites). The advantage of such a process is to prepare densified ceramic materials in a very short time, while keeping the ...

A novel dielectric elastomer actuator based on polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel electrodes [PDF]
We firstly demonstrate physically-prepared compliant PVA hydrogel electrodes as a promising supplement in dielectric elastomer actuators. They are capable of conducting high voltages over 5 kV without electrolysis by an electrical double layer effect. The hydrogel electrodes adhere tightly to the dielectric layer, which ensures its structural stability

Effect of the reference electrode size on the ionization instability in the plasma sheath of a small positively biased electrode [PDF]
It is well known that additional ionization in the vicinity of a positively biased electrode immersed into a weakly ionized plasma is responsible for a hysteresis in the electrode current-voltage characteristics and the current self-oscillations rise.
