Silicon Flexes Muscles: Giant Electrochemical Actuation in a Nanoporous Silicon-Polypyrrole Hybrid Material
Manuel Brinker, Guido Dittrich, Claudia Richert +5
The absence of piezoelectricity in silicon makes direct electro-mechanical applications of this mainstream semiconductor impossible. Integrated electrical control of the silicon me…
