Trilayer actuators were constructed using polypyrrole (PPy) films doped with dodecylbenzene sulfonate (DBS). Identical 5-20 μm PPy/DBS films were grown on either side of a 110 μm poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membrane to serve as working and counter electrodes with respect to each other. The performance of the tril…

We investigate the detailed electronic structure of $\mathrm{Pr}\mathrm{Co}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$ and its temperature evolution by using high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy and ab initio band structure calculations. We observe that, in addition to the correlation effect, spin-orbit interaction plays an important rol…

Conducting polymer trilayers are attractive for use in functional devices, given low actuation voltages, operation in air and potentially useful stresses and strains; however, their dynamic behavior must be understood from an engineering perspective before they can be effectively incorporated into a design. As a step…

We calculate the ground-state energy of Dirac electrons in graphene in the presence of disorder. We take randomly distributed charged impurities at a fixed distance from the graphene sheet and surface fluctuations (ripples) as the main scattering mechanisms. A mode-coupling approach to the scattering rate and random-p…
