Article Synopsis
  • Existing haptic actuators struggle to mimic real-world touch sensations because they are often stiff and limited in functionality.
  • The new wearable haptic artificial muscle skin (HAMS) uses soft, millimeter-scale dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) that allow for significant movement while remaining comfortable to wear.
  • HAMS provides complex and precise tactile feedback and can be integrated into extended reality (XR) systems, opening up possibilities for use in areas like entertainment, education, and assistive technologies.

Gamma sensitive plastic scintillators are of critical importance in the fields of nuclear nonproliferation, medical imaging, and high energy physics. However, there is often a trade-off between high light yield and high loading of high- components, both of which play an essential role in gamma ray detection. This work takes advantage of triplet exciton harvesting to increase gamma light yield by utilizing 1,3-di(9-carbazol-9-yl)benzene and 9,9-dimethyl-9-fluorene as triplet hosts to facilitate Dexter energy transfer to bis[2-(4,6-difluorophenyl)pyridinato-C2,N](picolinato)iridium(III) (FIrPic), a blue light emitting phosphorescent dye.
