| | Platinum Nanowire Actuator: Metallic Artificial Muscles | | Authors: | S. Lu, K. Sivakumar and B. Panchapakesan | | Affilation: | University of Delaware, US | | Pages: | 131 - 134 | | Keywords: | actuator, nanowire, carbon nanotube | | Abstract: | In this paper, we have fabricated platinum nanowires by using carbon nanotube as templates and have shown its applications for nanoactuation using electro-chemical actuation techniques.The strain response of the nanowire is measured and a total strain amplitude of 0.18% is acquired compared to the 0.15% for platinum nanoparticle actuator that was reported. To date, this is the first platinum nanowire actuator. | | ISBN: | 0-9767985-1-4 |
