1. 1. Inkjet printed piezoelectric energy harvesters based on self-assembly of diphenylalanine peptide

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Yujie Fu; [2023]
   Keywords : Inkjet printing; piezoelectric energy harvester; diphenylalanine peptide; self-assembly; Bläckstråleutskrift; piezoelektrisk energiskördare; difenylalaninpeptid; självmontering;

   Abstract : Diphenylalanine peptide (Phe-Phe or FF) is a very promising bio-material in the future wearable electronics application due to its self-assembly into nanotubes and nanoribbons with high shear piezoelectric coefficient which is comparable to traditional inorganic piezoelectric materials. In order to efficiently harvest piezoelectric response, alignment and unidirectional polarization of FF nanotubes are required. READ MORE

   Abstract : Forests have as a of late become increasingly plagued with bark beetle infestations as a result of climate change. The damage caused by tree killing bark beetles has within recent years seen a substantial increase. READ MORE

5. 4. Graphene growth on SiC under Arambient and H-intercalation

   University essay from KTH/Rymd- och plasmafysik

   Author : Kevin Mead; [2015]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : We grow epitaxial graphene on 6H-SiC (0001) substrates in Ar background and intercalatehydrogen to reform the carbon bu↵er layer into single and multilayered graphene. We willanalyze the graphene using a combination of techniques including optical microscopy,micro-Raman spectroscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), and reflectance mappingand contactless measurements of sheet carrier density and charge carrier mobility.

   Abstract : Graphene has been shown to be very powerful as a transducer in many biosensor applications due to its high sensitivity. This enables smaller surfaces and therefore less material consumption when producing sensors and concequently cheaper and more portable sensors compared to the commercially available sensors today.
