  1. 1. Organic electronics on micro and nano fibers : from e-textiles to biomolecular nanoelectronics

    Author : Mahiar Hamedi; Olle Inganäs; George Malliaras; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Research in the field of conjugated polymers (CPs) has led to the emergence of a number of interesting research areas and commercial applications, including solar cells, flexible displays, printed electronics, biosensors, e-textiles and more.Some of the advantages of organic electronics materials, as compared to their inorganic counterparts, include high elasticity, and mechanical flexibility, which allows for a natural integration of CPs into fabrics, making them ideal for e-texile.

  2. 2. On the elements of E-textiles : Fabrication and characterisation of textile routing and electrodes

    Author : Emanuel Gunnarsson; Fernando Seoane; Vladan Conkar; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Smart textiles; electronic textile; P-health; textile electrodes; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Abstract : “Smart textile” as a notion was demarcated approximately 25 years ago, leading to an enthusiastic hype around the research. Both academic efforts and members of the maker community developed prototypes and artistic creations that incorporated smart features into textiles. READ MORE

  3. 3. Functional Textile Coatings Containing Flake-shaped Fillers : investigations on selected optical and electrical properties

    Author : Veronica Malm; Ilda Kazani; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : Flakes; fillers; textile coating; properties; multilayered mica; effect pigment; angle-dependent colour change; metals; conductivity; resistance measurements; e-textiles; flexibility; durability; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the manufacturing and characterisation of functionalised textile coatings containing different types of flake-shaped fillers with angle-dependent colour-changing and electrically conductive properties, respectively. Common benefits of these types of flakes are their high aspect ratio, which offers low filler loading with high functional performance. READ MORE

  4. 4. Conducting Foams and Fibres for Bulk Plastic Thermoelectrics

    Author : Jason Ryan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanocomposites.; e-textiles; renewable energy; conducting yarn; thermoelectrics; conjugated polymers; organic thermoelectrics; electronic textiles; polymer foams; conducting fibres;

    Abstract : The use of small portable electronics in society is constantly increasing, thus the demand for portable power sources also rises in turn. Portable electronic devices rely upon energy stored in batteries to power them, which in turn require regular access to power outlets to be recharged. READ MORE

  5. 5. Electroanalytical devices with fluidic control using textile materials and methods

    Author : Ingrid Öberg Månsson; Mahiar Hamedi; Lars Wågberg; Gaston A. Crespo; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Textile; e-textiles; textile-based diagnostics; microfluidics; glucose sensing; sweat based diagnostics; wearable sensors; micro total analysis systems μTAS ; electrochemistry and organic electrochemical transistor OECT ; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : This thesis, written by Ingrid Öberg Månsson at KTH Royal Institute of Technology and entitled “Electroanalytical devices with fluidic control using textile materials and methods”, presents experimental studies on the development of textile based electronic devices and biosensors. One of the reasons why this is of interest is the growing demand for integrated smart products for wearable health monitoring or energy harvesting. READ MORE
