Conductive Organic Threads as Electrical Interconnects for Smart Clothing and Non-metallic Electrodes for Clinical Applications

BACKGROUND Organic conductive fibers are a combination of electric wires and textiles having characteristics of both used to transfer electric current. Conductive fibers consist of a non-conductive or less conductive substrate, which is then either coated or embedded with electrically conductive elements. Because it is thin and flexible, can take many...

Adaptive Pore Size Smart Material

BACKGROUND Prosthetic limbs are typically mounted to the remnant limb via a sleeve, which are made from a variety of materials, but mostly from silicone elastomers. Unfortunately, these sleeves heat up the limb remnant and can lose grip as the temperature increases and sweating occurs. This problem is addressed via two approaches: medical treatments...

Additive Manufacturing Using Ionized Particles

BACKGROUND Modern 3D printers can print intricate shapes at fine detail, but their low print speed enables them to only be used for prototyping or, at best, limited batch manufacturing. As an example, the fasted current metal printers can print a volume of about 60 cm³/hr. per nozzle or laser. This equivalent to about 8 grams/minute for a...
