This project focuses on developing a novel actuator using composite polymer and metal nanoparticles, initially designed for reversible color changes. The actuator's force generation surpasses existing microscale devices, with potential applications in microfluidic technology and DNA nanomachines.
Over the past 2 years we have developed and patented a new actuator which is based on composite polymer/metal nanoparticles.
Originally designed to create strong reversible colour changes, we found that the forces generated in the actuation exceed current microscale devices by nearly two orders of magnitude (weight for weight).
We have thus protected and developed this possibility using my Advanced ERC project, LINASS, together with Cambridge Enterprise (CE, the commercialisation arm of the Univ…
