Thin-Film-Engineered Self-Assembly of 3D Coaxial Microfluidics with a Tunable Polyimide Membrane for Bioelectronic Power
Aleksandr I. Egunov, Hongmei Tang, Pablo E. Saenz +11
Thin-film self-assembly of three-dimensional (3D) microsystems presents a compelling route to integrate complex functionalities into ultra-compact volumes, yet strategies for incor…
Rolled-up self-assembly of compact magnetic inductors, transformers and resonators
Dmitriy D. Karnaushenko, Daniil Karnaushenko, Hans-Joachim Grafe +3
Three-dimensional self-assembly of lithographically patterned ultrathin films opens a path to manufacture microelectronic architectures with functionalities and integration schemes…
Modular electronic microrobots with on board sensor-program steered locomotion
Vineeth K. Bandari, Yeji Lee, Pranathi Adluri +4
True microrobots, in contrast with externally controlled microparticles, must harvest or carry their own source of energy, as well as their own (preferably programmable) microcontr…
3D Modular Microrobots: Micro-Origami Cubes with Integrated Si Chips Dive, Communicate, Flash Programs, and Form Collectives
Yeji Lee, Vineeth K. Bandari, John S. McCaskill +4
Modular microrobotics can potentially address many information-intensive microtasks in medicine, manufacturing and the environment. However, surface area has limited the natural po…
