Facile, Scalable, and High‐Yield Synthesis of a Near‐Unity Quantum Yield Zero‐Dimensional Copper Halide Cs3Cu2Cl5 Scintillator for X‐Ray Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
A dioxolane‐mediated reaction synthesis provides a simple and scalable route to phase‐pure Cs3Cu2Cl5 scintillator powders with near‐complete conversion, near‐unity photoluminescence quantum yield, and long‐term stability. The resulting green‐emitting composite films exhibit strong radioluminescence, high light yield, and practical compatibility with ...

Elimination of Necking and Aspect Ratio Dependence in Uniaxial Actuators by Continuous Fiber Reinforcement

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A novel carbon fiber reinforcement for dielectric elastomer actuators enhances actuation force while decoupling electromechanical performance from the actuator's aspect ratio. Unlike conventional fiber reinforcements, it enables a uniform planar stretch state along the entire actuator.

Piezoresistivity Enhancement by Graphite Flake Alignment in Thin Composite Films for Dielectric Elastomer Switches

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article presents dielectric elastomer switch (DES) materials, based on composite thin films. Alignment of graphite flakes due to their physical confinement within the thin films lead to much stronger piezoresistive responses than bulk composites, while their durability exceeds that of conventional liquid‐based DES materials.

In Situ Photopolymerization of Smectic B Liquid‐Crystalline Electrolytes from Mesogenic Phosphate–Diacrylate/Ionic Liquid Complexes for High‐Performance Soft Ionic Actuators

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A flexible liquid‐crystalline electrolyte membrane via in situ photopolymerization of a phosphate‐functionalized mesogen, ionic liquid, and diacrylate monomer is developed. The resulting smectic B (SmB)‐phase structure enables 2D ion transport with high conductivity (10−4 S cm−1).

Spheroidization of glass powders for glass ionomer cements

Biomaterials, 2004
Commercial angular glass powders were spheroidized using both the flame spraying and inductively coupled radio frequency plasma spraying techniques. Spherical powders with different particle size distributions were obtained after spheroidization. The effects of spherical glass powders on the mechanical properties of glass ionomer cements (GICs) were ...

Aging of glass powder surface

Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids, 2015
Abstract Glass powder (GP) obtained by grinding waste bottle glass has been recently introduced in construction materials as a supplementary cementing material (SCM). The behavior of SCMs strongly depends on surface chemistry, which governs their reactivity.
