Printed degradable piezoelectric microsystems: From ink formulation to device fabrication and characterization

As the world moves further and further into the semiconductor era, the amount of waste generated from electronics ("e-waste") is increasing rapidly and unsustainably. Of particular note, alternatives to lead-based piezoelectric materials must be establishe ...

The physics of 3D printing with light

Christophe Moser

The goal of 3D printing is to realize complex 3D structures by locally adding material in small volume elements called voxels - in contrast to successively subtracting material by etching, milling or machining. This field started with optics-based proposal ...

Projector-based augmented stacking framework for irregularly shaped objects

Katrin Beyer, Yves Weinand, Julien Gamerro, Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò, Andrea Settimi, Qianqing Wang

Augmented reality in additive fabrication is predominantly applied to the manufacturing of structures from regularly shaped materials. Our work however embraces natural heterogeneity, by focusing on the assembly of irregularly shaped elements such as miner ...

Flexible Silk-Based Graphene Bioelectronics For Wearable Multimodal Physiological Monitoring

Ata Jedari Golparvar

We introduce a skin-inspired epidermal bioelectronic patch (EBP) with unprecedented integration of graphene on silk with a facile and cost-effective fabrication process, excluding complex ink formulation. We advance the state-of-the-art by directly screen- ...

Recycling of Bottle Grade PET: Influence of HDPE Contamination on the Microstructure and Mechanical Performance of 3D Printed Parts

Véronique Michaud, Yves Leterrier, Adrien Julien Demongeot, Joanne Hélène Vaucher-Joset

As part of a project that aims to provide people with disabilities with simple assistive devices in Colombia, the possibility of creating a PET filament that can be printed by Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM) from beverage bottle waste was investigated, wi ...

Self-Assembled Dewetting as a Fabrication Platform for Photonics Applications

Fabien Sorin, Louis Marie Philippe Martin-Monier, Pierre-Luc Eloi Piveteau, William Nicolas Duncan Esposito, Bastien Schyrr

A novel fabrication method based on controlled fluid re-arrangement of thin amorphous optical glass film is leveraged to realize two large-area photonics metasurfaces: 1) a highly directional nanoantenna array (metareflector), and 2) a metagrating for inde ...

Bragg edge tomography characterization of additively manufactured 316L steel

Roland Logé, Christian Leinenbach, Nikola Kalentics

In this work we perform a neutron Bragg edge tomography of stainless steel 316L additive manufacturing samples, one as built via standard laser powder bed fusion, and one using the novel three-dimensional (3D) laser shock peening technique. First, we consi ...

Synthesis and Characterization of High-Photoactivity Electrodeposited Cu2O solar absorber by photoelectrochemistry and ultrafast spectroscopy

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Jan Cornelius Brauer, Adriana Paracchino

We present a systematic study on the effects of electrodeposition parameters on the photoelectrochemical properties of Cu2O. The influence of deposition variables (temperature, pH, and deposition current density) on conductivity has been widely explored in ...

Polysaccharide Layer-by-Layer Coating for Polyimide-Based Neural Interfaces

Silvestro Micera

Implantable flexible neural interfaces (IfNIs) are capable of directly modulating signals of the central and peripheral nervous system by stimulating or recording the action potential. Despite outstanding results in acute experiments on animals and humans, ...
