Epitaxially Integrated Electro‐Optic KNbO3 Thin Films on Silicon

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
We demonstrate the first epitaxial integration of electro‐optic KNbO3 thin films on silicon using suboxide molecular‐beam epitaxy. Combining adsorption‐controlled molecular‐beam epitaxy, advanced characterization, and phase‐field modeling, we demonstrate phase‐pure crystalline films mirroring bulk crystals with robust Pockels response, enabling future ...

Achieving High Spatial Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy Studies in Closed Liquid Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Achieving high spatial resolution is important for resolving nanoscale dynamic processes and structural transformations in liquid environments, yet remains challenging in liquid cell transmission electron microscopy (LCTEM). This review highlights key strategies, including mitigating membrane bulging, displacing or redistributing local liquid ...

Limit cycles and stiffness control with variable stiffness actuators

open access: yes2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2012
Variable stiffness actuators realize highly dynamic systems, whose inherent mechanical compliance can be properly exploited to obtain a robust and energy-efficient behavior. The paper presents a control strategy for variable stiffness actuators with the primarily goal of tracking a limit cycle trajectory and a desired stiffness, which is a function of ...

Backstepping Control of Variable Stiffness Robots

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 2015
Robots with elastic joints arouse an increasing interest in the robotics community. Especially, variable stiffness robots promise to be beneficial regarding robustness and task adaptability. However, the control of variable stiffness multijoint robots is challenging due to their highly nonlinear behavior.

A position and stiffness control strategy for variable stiffness actuators

2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2012
Variable stiffness actuators (VSAs) have been introduced to improve, at the design level, the safety and the energy efficiency of the new generation of robots that have to interact closely with humans. A wide variety of design solutions have recently been proposed, and a common factor in most of the VSAs is the introduction of a flexible transmission ...

Towards a robust variable stiffness actuator

2013 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2013
Robots with Variable Stiffness Actuators (VSA) are intrinsically flexible in the joints. The built-in mechanical spring not only has the advantage of a higher peak performance, but also leads to a more robust robot. This paper presents and analyzes the threats to a VSA equipped robot that arise from external or internal origin. Influences of mechanical,
