  • METALLIC MOLYBDENUM DISULFIDE NANOSHEETS-BASED ELECTROCHEMICAL ACTUATORS
    Publication number: 20190093640
    Abstract: An actuator comprising a flexible substrate having a surface comprising one or more active regions, each of the active regions having disposed thereon an electrochemically active film comprising a plurality of 1T phase 2D MoS2 nanosheets which impart a first force upon the flexible substrate in response to electrochemical charging of ions in the 2D MoS2 nanosheets and impart a second force upon the flexible substrate in response to electrochemical discharging of ions in the 2D MoS2 nanosheets, wherein the first and second forces imparted to the flexible substrate each being sufficient to displace the flexible substrate. The flexible substrate may comprise a polymer substrate and the electrochemically active film may comprise a conductive layer having disposed thereon the plurality of 1T phase 2D MoS2 nanosheets.
