Arrays of indefinitely long uniform nanowires and nanotubes
(Nature Publishing Group, 2011)Nanowires are arguably the most studied nanomaterial model to make functional devices and arrays. Although there is remarkable maturity in the chemical synthesis of complex nanowire structures, their integration and ... -
Bio-inspired hierarchically structured polymer fibers for anisotropic non-wetting surfaces
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)We demonstrate a rice leaf-like hierarchically textured polymer fiber array for anisotropic non-wetting surfaces. To provide superhydrophobicity in addition to the anisotropic behavior, fiber surfaces are spray coated with ... -
Continuous triboelectric power harvesting and biochemical sensing inside poly(vinylidene fluoride) hollow fibers using microfluidic droplet generation
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-11)Triboelectric power harvesting and biochemical sensing inside poly(vinylidene fluoride) hollow fibers. Fiber‐based microfluidic energy harvesting system, which is also utilized as self‐powered chemical and biosensor. In ... -
High selectivity boolean olfaction using hollow-core wavelength-scalable Bragg fibers
(American Chemical Society, 2012)A new odorant detection scheme, based on infrared absorption of volatile organics inside an optofluidic channel array, is discussed in terms of its selectivity. The sensor unit of the array is a hollow core Bragg fiber ... -
Macroscopic assembly of indefinitely long and parallel nanowires into large area photodetection circuitry
(American Chemical Society, 2012)Integration of nanowires into functional devices with high yields and good reliability turned out to be a lot more challenging and proved to be a critical issue obstructing the wide application of nanowire-based devices ... -
A motion-and sound-activated, 3D-printed chalcogenide-based triboelectric nanogenerator
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2015)A multilayered triboelectric nanogenerator (MULTENG) that can be actuated by acoustic waves, vibration of a moving car, and tapping motion is built using a 3D-printing technique. The MULTENG can generate an open-circuit ... -
A new route for fabricating on-chip chalcogenide microcavity resonator arrays
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2014-07)High-yield production and on-chip integration of high-Q chalcogenide microresonators with various sizes and geometrical shapes (spherical, spheroidal, and ellipsoidal) and with sub-nanometer surface roughness is achieved. ... -
Photonic bandgap narrowing in conical hollow core Bragg fibers
(AIP Publishing, 2014)We report the photonic bandgap engineering of Bragg fibers by controlling the thickness profile of the fiber during the thermal drawing. Conical hollow core Bragg fibers were produced by thermal drawing under a rapidly ... -
Spontaneous high piezoelectricity in poly ( vinylidene fluoride ) nanoribbons produced by iterative thermal size reduction technique
(American Chemical Society, 2014-08-18)We produced kilometer-long, endlessly parallel, spontaneously piezoelectric and thermally stable poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) micro- and nanoribbons using iterative size reduction technique based on thermal fiber ... -
Surface textured polymer fibers for microfluidics
(WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2014)This article introduces surface textured polymer fibers as a new platform for the fabrication of affordable microfluidic devices. Fibers are produced tens of meters-long at a time and comprise 20 continuous and ordered ...
