Synthesis, structural and magnetic characterization of thin films of the chiral magnets CoZnMn and FeGe

Anna Kúkol'ová

Skyrmions are topologically protected nanometer-sized magnetic vortices that have sparked interest for future spintronics applications aiming at high-density, high-speed and low-power consuming magnetic memory devices. One type of skyrmions appears in non- ...

Effect of electrode composition and patterning method on the lifetime of silicone-based dielectric elastomer actuators (DEA) under different environmental conditions

Herbert Shea, Fabio Beco Albuquerque

We report an experimental investigation of the lifetime of dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) under constant DC actuation, with a characterization setup which allows the monitoring of strain and resistance over time for 6 DEAs in parallel. We show how t ...

Fabrication of micrometer-sized drops as templates for particles

Mathias Steinacher

Drops are omnipresent in our daily life for example in the form of rain drops or as oil drops in a salad dressing. On a technological basis, drops can be used to conduct chemical or biological reactions. These drops often serve as templates to produce mate ...

Characterization and Verification of Eddy-Current Position Sensing for Magnetic Levitation

Yves Perriard, Sean Thomas, Juan Patricio Tomás Peralta Fierro

Magnetically-levitated drives are compelling in applications where the long-lifetime operation or process chamber encapsulation is a requirement. To exploit these advantages, contactless position sensors are needed to estimate the position of the rotor. Of ...

Benefits and drawbacks of applied direct currents for soil improvement via carbonate mineralization

Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis, Patrick Gabriel Yihsiu-Ming Hicher

The study presented herein adopts a new vision of the processes involved in carbonate mineralization induced by MICP from an electrochemical and crystal growth perspective. More precisely a specific line of focus refers to the species involved in the bio-c ...

A modern scleractinian coral with a two-component calcite–aragonite skeleton

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

One of the most conserved traits in the evolution of biomineralizing organisms is the taxon-specific selection of skeletal minerals. All modern scleractinian corals are thought to produce skeletons exclusively of the calcium-carbonate polymorph aragonite. ...
