    Sammanfattning : Soft matter, here, liquids and polymers, have adaptability to a surrounding geometry. They intrinsically have advantageous characteristics from a mechanical perspective, such as flowing and wetting on surrounding surfaces, giving compliant, conformal and deformable behavior. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Chemical Doping of Conjugated Polymers for Thermoelectric Applications

    Författare :Mariavittoria Craighero; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mechanical properties; conjugated polymers; solid-state order; organic thermoelectrics; chemical doping;

    Sammanfattning : The ongoing development of interconnected and wearable small devices, which together make up the so-called Internet of Things, is driving a rising need for autonomous and on-site energy supplies. Heat, an abundant and often wasted energy source, can be harnessed through thermoelectric generators that can directly convert heat into electricity. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Wearable Solutions for P-Health at Work : Precise, Pervasive and Preventive
