Abstract:
The present invention relates to a deformation sensor comprising a structure in which an ion-conductive polymer layer is sandwiched between soft electrodes, wherein non-uniform ion distribution is generated in the ion-conductive polymer layer by deformation, thereby generating a potential difference between the electrodes.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide an actuator that has improved performance. As a means for achieving this object, provided is a conductive thin film comprising a polymer gel containing a polyaniline (PANI), carbon nanohorns (CNH), carbon nanotubes (CNT), an ionic liquid, and a polymer, wherein the mass of the polyaniline is 10 to 50%, the mass of the carbon nanohorns is 10 to 50%, and the mass of the carbon nanotubes is 1 to 50% when the total mass of the polyaniline, the carbon nanohorns, and the carbon nanotubes is taken as 100%.
Abstract:
An object of this invention is to create an actuator in which the amount of deformation is maintained and no displacement in the reverse direction occurs, even when a constant voltage is continuously applied for a long period of time. As a means for achieving the above object, the invention provides a conductive thin film comprising a polymer gel containing at least one organic molecule selected from the group consisting of electron-donating organic molecules and electron-withdrawing organic molecules, a nano-carbon material, an ionic liquid, and a polymer.
