Abstract:

Bio-inspired design plays a very significant role in adapting biological models to technical applications of flexible electronics. The flexible, stretchable, and portable electrode is one of the key technical challenges in the field. Inspired by the responses to mechanical stimuli of natural plants, we designed a highly transparent (over 95%), stretchable (over 1500%), and biocompatible electrode material by using polymerized double-network hydrogel for fabricating a triboelectric nanogenerator (SH-TENG). The SH-TENG can convert tiny mechanical stretching from human movements directly into electrical energy, and is capable of lighting up to 50 LEDs. Benefiting from bio-inspired design, the coplanar, non-overlapping electrode structure breaks through the limitations of conventional electrodes in wearable devices and overcomes the bottleneck of transparent materials. Furthermore, a self-powered raindrop visual sensing system was realized, which can perform quasi-real-time rainfall information monitoring and increase rainfall recognition ability of vehicle automatic driving systems. This study provides a novel strategy for making next-generation stretchable electronic devices and flexible visual sensing systems.

Abstract:

In this work, the novel design of a sliding mode TriboElectric Nano Generator (TENG)—which can utilize vibration amplitude of a few hundred microns to generate useful electric power—is proposed for the first time. Innovative design features include motion modification to amplify relative displacement of the TENG electrodes and use of biological material-based micron-sized powder at one of the electrodes to increase power output. The sliding mode TENG is designed and fabricated with use of polyurethane foam charged with the biological material micropowder and PolyTetraFluoroEthylene (PTFE) strips as the electrodes. Experimentations on the prototype within frequency range of 0.5–6 Hz ensured peak power density of 0.262 mW/m2, corresponding to the TENG electrode size. Further numerical simulation is performed with the theoretical model to investigate the influence of various design parameters on the electric power generated by the TENG. Lastly, application of the proposed TENG is demonstrated in a wearable device as an in-shoe sensor. Conceptual arrangement of the proposed in-shoe sensor is presented, and numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate that the real size application can deliver peak power density of 0.747 mW/m2 and TENG; the voltage will accurately represent foot vertical force for various foot force patterns.

Abstract:

Electro-Conjugate Fluid (ECF) is a kind of functional fluid that produces a jet flow (ECF jet) when subjected to high DC voltage. A strong ECF jet is known to be generated in a nonuniform electric field, for example, a field with a pair of needle and ring electrodes. This study introduces the ECF jet in developing a novel bio-inspired robot. We first propose the concept of a robot driven by an ECF jet. The robot is mainly composed of ECF jet generators (a micro fluid pressure source), fiber-reinforced rubber actuators, a built-in spring actuator, and an ECF tank. We next investigate the characteristics of the ECF jet generator, the fiberreinforced rubber actuator, and the built-in spring actuator. As a result, we confirmed that the maximum pressure and flow rate of the ECF jet generator are 32.0 kPa and 27.0 ml/min, respectively, and that the actuators could be driven by the ECF jet. We then developed a bio-inspired robot and demonstrated that the robot could move in a 14 mm diameter acrylic half pipe with 0.6 mm/s, and in a 14 mm diameter acrylic pipe with 0.5 mm/s. The robot is 300 mm long with a mass of 26 g.

Abstract:

In recent decades, graphene nanotechnology has emerged as an escalating field of research owing to the excellent physicochemical properties of graphene. Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb-like structure, has shown potential utility in multifarious sectors of science and technology such as energy, biomedical engineering, wastewater treatment, environmental pollution, etc. Graphene and its composites have been extensively used as electrode materials in energy storage devices such as Lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and metal-air batteries. In addition, graphene-based materials have emerged as potential electrodes material for fuel cells, thereby contributing to a low-carbon economy. Graphene gave a new dimension to electronic industries by replacing the conventionally used material i.e., Silicon (Si) in electronic devices. Moreover, the tunable surface area, functionalization, hydrophilicity, and strong π- π interaction properties of graphene prove its potential applications in medical and environmental science and technology. Recently, graphene-based adsorbents, membranes, and catalysts provide a simple, low-cost, and efficient water and wastewater treatment method. The materials not only detect but also remove various pollutants from wastewater even at very low concentrations. However, due to its extremely small size in devices and components, it is difficult to handle graphene in real applications. Graphene nanotechnology enables the researcher to unfold new properties and functions of graphene in the nanoscale realm providing solutions to unresolved issues related to the health care systems, energy demand, and environmental pollution. These materials not only enhance efficiency but also cause a paradigm shift in many applications. This book chapter sheds light on the earlier investigations, current progress, and future perspective of graphene-based nanotechnology.

Abstract:

The general trends in the construction of highly active electrode devices are focused on the science of materials. These are useful for developing 2D nanostructured electrodes, with well-defined active sites, which are excellent approaches for understanding the fundamentals of electrocatalytic reactions. Here we present an overview of the experimental self-assembled molecular catalyst configurations to develop excellent electrode materials containing molecular catalysts for energy conversion device applications. First, by applying well-known reactivity descriptors for electrocatalysis, nanoarchitectonics, and the self-assembled concept, we summarize the main molecular building blocks to achieve a technology system for arranging by a rational design, nanoscale structural units configuration that promotes electrocatalytic reactions such as oxygen reaction reduction (ORR) and water-splitting reactions. We focus the discussion on the MN4 molecular catalyst linked to electrode surfaces with the help of the axial blocks, bio-inspired self-assembled approaches such as biomimetic models of metalloenzymes active sites, and molybdenum sulfide clusters for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). We briefly discuss the advantages of developing host-guest self-assembled molecular catalyst systems based on cyclodextrins anchored to electrodes to get well-defined active sites with local environment control.

Abstract:

This chapter provides a brief review of molecular communication, a networking paradigm inspired by cell communication mechanisms. In molecular communication, information is encoded to and decoded from molecules, rather than electrons or electromagnetic waves. Molecular communication provides bio-compatible and energy-efficient solutions with massive parallelization at the nano-to-micro scale; it is expected to play a key role in a multitude of domains including health, the environment, and ICT (Information Communication Technology). Models and methods of molecular communication are also reviewed, and research challenges that need to be addressed for further advancement of the molecular communication paradigm are discussed.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper presents vibration-assisted insertion of flexible neural electrodes with bio-dissolvable guides to deliver accurate microprobe insertion with minimized tissue damage. Invasive flexible neural microprobe is an important new tool for neuromodulation and recording research for medical neurology treatment applications. Flexible neural electrode probes are susceptible to bending and buckling during surgical implantation due to the thin and flexible soft substrates. Inspired by insects in nature, a vibration-assisted insertion technique is developed for flexible neural electrode insertion to deliver accurate microprobe insertion with minimized tissue damage. A three-dimensional combined longitudinal-twisting (L&T) vibration is used to reduce the insertion friction force, and thus reducing soft tissue damage. To reduce the flexible microelectrode buckling during surgical insertion, a bio-dissolvable Polyethylene glycol (PEG) guide is developed for the enhancement of flexible neural probe stiffness. Combining these two methods, the insertion performance of the flexible neural probe is significantly improved. Both the in vitro and the in vivo experiments were conducted to validate the proposed techniques.

Abstract:

This paper describes the development of a tube-shaped ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) actuator with sectored electrodes and an integrated resistive strain-based displacement sensor. Tube or cylindrical shaped IPMC actuators, with the ability to provide multiple degrees-of-freedom motion, can be used to create active catheter biomedical devices and novel bio-inspired propulsion mechanisms for underwater autonomous systems. An experimental tube-shaped IPMC actuator is manufactured from a 40-mm long Nafion polymer tube with inner diameter of 1.3 mm and outer diameter of 1.6 mm. The outer surface of the tube-shaped structure is plated with platinum metal via an electroless plating process. The platinum electrode on the tube’s outer surface is sectored into four isolated electrodes using a simple surface milling technique. A custom-designed strain sensor comprised of 50 AWG ni-chrome wire is developed and attached to the tube’s surface to sense the bending motion of the tube actuator. The integrated sensor is low cost and practical, and it avoids the need for bulky external sensors such as lasers for measuring deflection and feedback control. Preliminary experimental results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the IPMC tube actuator and integrated displacement sensor.

Abstract:

On September 26, 2002, NASA announced that a consortium of six universities including: The University of Maryland, Virginia Tech, The University of Virginia, North Carolina A&T State University, North Carolina State University, and Georgina Tech had submitted the winning proposal for a National Institute of Aerospace. The Institute began formal operations in January of 2003 in Hampton, VA, and its mission included research, education, outreach, and technology transfer. One important focus of the NIA was to stimulate research among its member universities of potential benefit to NASA and to develop additional partnerships to further NIA focus areas. The work described in this paper is such an activity in bio-inspired actuator materials. This work was originally advocated and developed at Inha University, and it is being extended by teams from Inha University, North Carolina A&T State University, and NASA Langley so that the potential for these actuators as devices for special applications is better understood. This paper focuses on important performance characteristics of electro-active paper (EAPap) actuators and the potential of thes actuators to propel autonomous devices. EAPap is a paper that produces large displacement with small force under an electrical excitation. EAPap is made with chemically treated papers with electrodes on both outer surfaces. When electrical voltage is applied to the electrodes, a tip displacement is produced. One drawback in such actuators is that the actual power produced is variable, and the displacement is relatively unstable. Further, the performance tends to degrade in time and as a function of how the papers are processed. Environmental factors also impact the performance of the product including temperature and humidity. The use of such materials in ambulatory devices requires attention to these concerns and further research is needed to find what initial applications are most congruent with EAPap performance and service lift. In this paper, we have extended the knowledge base of EAPap to include additional ranges of temperature and humidity. We have also looked beyond the current tests on cantilevered beam actuators to segmented plate sections and have tested the ability of these actuators to perform as oscillatory devices both in and out of phase, and to chart their performance vs. time humidity and temperature thus emulating a rudimentary wing or walking assembly.

Abstract:

Abstract Fiber-based flexible piezoelectric composites with interdigitated electrodes, namely Macro-Fiber Composite (MFC) structures, strike a balance between the deformation and actuation force capabilities for effective underwater bio-inspired locomotion. These materials are also suitable for vibration-based energy harvesting toward enabling self-powered electronic components. In this work, we design, fabricate, and experimentally characterize an MFC-based bio-inspired swimmer-energy harvester platform. Following in vacuo and in air frequency response experiments, the proposed piezoelectric robotic fish platform is tested and characterized under water for its swimming performance both in free locomotion (in a large water tank) and also in a closed-loop water channel under imposed flow. In addition to swimming speed characterization under resonant actuation, hydrodynamic thrust resultant in both quiescent water and under imposed flow are quantified experimentally. We show that the proposed design easily produces thrust levels on the order of biological fish with similar dimensions. Overall it produces thrust levels higher than other smart material-based designs (such as soft material-based concepts), while offering geometric scalability and silent operation unlike large scale robotic fish platforms that use conventional and bulky actuators. The performance of this untethered swimmer platform in piezoelectric energy harvesting is also quantified by underwater base excitation experiments in a quiescent water and via vortex induced-vibration (VIV) experiments under imposed flow in a water channel. Following basic resistor sweep experiments in underwater base excitation experiments, VIV tests are conducted for cylindrical bluff body configurations of different diameters and distances from the leading edge of the energy harvesting tail portion. The resulting concept and design can find use for underwater swimmer and sensor applications such as ecological monitoring, among others.
