New designs were fabricated via multimaterial 3D printing and potential applications of sequential particle release mechanisms were systematically explored.
Micro-/Nanotechnology
Nanoglue Bonding by iCVD (Initiated Chemical Vapor Deposition)
A simplified iCVD coater is developed that can be installed at low cost in most labs, and further use it to engineer submicron bond gaps in materials with common non-ideal features like curvature, roughness, and burrs.
Intelligent Sensing System Based on Hybrid Nanogenerator
Two triboelectric nanogenerators with different configurations were designed and hybridized with Faraday electromagnetic induction generator to generate electricity, which can convert the kinetic energy from wind and flowing water and the electrostatic energy in water into electrical energy.
Flexible Bio-Electronics from Water-Processable Graphene Nano-Inks
Flexible graphene nano-inks with an excellent bioactivity pave the way for next generation biomedical applications.
Perfect 2D Ceramic Films from Graphene Precursors
Metallized graphene inks open new directions in film patterning since dense ceramic films with the micro- and macrostructure of a graphene host were produced for the first time in Brown University
3D Printed Compliance-Tailored Multilayers
By crafting a spatially compliance-tailored bondlayer utilizing additive manufacturing, mechanical performance can be increased significantly, imparting greater strength, strain to break, and toughness, while maintaining stiffness of the homogeneous stiff bondlayer.
Seeing in the Dark: Supramolecular Nanocomposite Optical Filter
A nanocomposite possessing high NIR-transparency is developed, and shown to be applicable for NIR photography, security, and forensic-related applications.
Recent Progress on Fabrication and Drug Delivery Applications of Nanostructured Hydroxyapatite
Nanostructured hydroxyapatite (nHAp) appears to have a great potential to revolutionize the hard tissue-engineering field, starting from bone repair and augmentation to controlled drug delivery systems.
Breaking free from vascular confinement: status and prospects for submicron ultrasound contrast agents
In contrast to healthy tissue, tumors demand a high supply of nutrients and oxygen, and will invade existing vessels and develop new ones to meet these demands.
A Bright Future For InGaN Photonic Crystal Light Emitters
