  2. 1. Microsystems based on polypyrrole microactuators : microrobots and cell clinics

    Author : Edwin W. H. Jager; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Conducting polymers like polypyrrole (PPy) are suitable materials for actuators. PPy undergoes a volume change, driven by redox processes accompanied by ion movement. This volume change is reversible. By combining PPy with a support and/or electrode layer into a bilayer, actuators can be made. READ MORE

  4. 2. Conjugated polymer surface switches for active cell control

    Author : Maria Bolin; Magnus Berggren; Edwin Jager; Danilo De Rossi; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Elektronik; Polymerer; Organisk elektronik; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Conjugated polymers have been found useful in a wide range of applications such as sensors, electrochemical transistors, solar cells, and printed electronics due to their mechanical, optical and electronic properties. An amazing research field has grown during the last three decades since the discovery of conducting polymers in 1976. READ MORE

  5. 3. Conducting Polymer-based Biohybrid Materials : Towards Microphysiological Chips and Soft Actuators for Bone Tissue Engineering

    Author : Danfeng Cao; Edwin Jager; Jose Gabriel Martinez Gil; Jonathan Rossiter; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The human body is a complex system, consisting of different types of biomolecules and living matters, such as nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, serum, cells, tissues, and organs. These complex biomolecules and living matters integrate and interact dynamically to perform and maintain body functions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Autonomous Lab-on-a-chip: solutions and fast prototyping tools

    Author : German Comina Bellido; Daniel Filippini; Edwin Jager; Anke Suska; Niels B. Larsen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Autonomous Lab-on-a-chip; bio-chemical sensing; sensor fabrication; biosensing cell phone; 3D printed fluidics; 3D printed optics.;

    Abstract : In this thesis, solutions for the development of autonomous Lab-on-a-chip (LOC), and 3D printing for fast prototyping of LOC devices are investigated. Lab-on-a-chip devices integrate analytical systems and conditioning processes in a compact package. READ MORE

  7. 5. Monopolar and Bipolar Membranes in Organic Bioelectronic Devices

    Author : Erik O. Gabrielsson; Magnus Berggren; Edwin Jager; Daniel Simon; Ari Ivaska; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bioelectronics; ionic; ion transport; bipolar membrane; conjugated polymer; amyloid; self-assembly;

    Abstract : In the 1970s it was discovered that organic polymers, a class of materials otherwise best know as insulating plastics, could be made electronically conductive. As an alternative to silicon semiconductors, organic polymers offer many novel features, characteristics, and opportunities, such as producing electronics at low costs using printing techniques, using organic chemistry to tune optical and electronic properties, and mechanical flexibility.
