Compact fiber optical interferometer technique to measure picometer displacements in biological piezoelectric materials
Mingyue Liu, Nicholas Yaraghi, Jun Xu +2
A simple and robust fiber optical interferometer was developed to non-invasively study the weak piezoelectric effect from thin samples. A biological sample from inter-molt dactyl c…
A Sinusoidally-Architected Helicoidal Biocomposite
Nicholas A. Yaraghi, Nicolás Guarín-Zapata, Lessa K. Grunenfelder +11
A fibrous herringbone-modified helicoidal architecture is identified within the exocuticle of an impact-resistant crustacean appendage. This previously unreported composite microst…
Shear Wave Filtering in Naturally-Occurring Bouligand Structures
Nicolás Guarín-Zapata, Juan Gomez, Nick Yaraghi +2
Wave propagation was investigated in the Bouligand-like structure from within the dactyl club of the Stomatopod, a crustacean that is known to smash their heavily shelled preys wit…
