Nanowire-based Chemical Connector for Miniature-Scale Applications

Technology Benefits

- Efficient binding at both micro- and macro-scale dimensions; - Specific and versatile binding; - Reusable; - Tunable binding properties; - High macroscopic shear adhesion strength; - Minimal binding to non-self-similar surfaces; - Anisotropic adhesion behavior;

Technology Application

Connector applications that require reversible and specific binding between miniature components.

Detailed Technology Description

None

Others

Testing

Tests indicate that the innovative nanowire connectors exhibit high macroscopic shear adhesion strength (~163 N/cm^2), with minimal binding to non-self-similar surfaces, anisotropic adhesion behavior (shear to normal strength ratio ~25), reusability (~27 attach/detach cycles), and efficient binding for both micro- and macro-scale dimensions.
