A soft electroactive gel enables untethered robots to deform, grip, and move using only external electric fields, eliminating ...

Abstract: A MEMS magnetic actuator microswitch has been fabricated which, in addition to the primary cantilever bending, exhibits a secondary wiping motion during overdrive. A self-wiping action is ...

Abstract: We propose a new integrated head/actuator/slider concept for hard disk drives. This slider is batch fabricated on the sacrificial layer of a wafer together with an electrostatic ...
