Abstract: Dielectric elastomer (DE), as a group of electro-active polymers, has been widely used in soft robotics due to its inherent flexibility and large induced deformation. As sustained high voltage is needed to maintain the ...

Abstract: Micro/nano-textured Si wafers manufactured using metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) have been the focus of several studies, but the mechanism of bubble generation during the MACE process affecting textured surfaces has ...

Abstract: This study used hyperspectral imaging to analyze localized near-field interactions between incident electromagnetic waves and silicon nanowire (SiNW) arrays manufactured through catalytic etching of Si wafers for different ...
