Self-healing materials for flexible electronic devices by Tiwari, Naveen

“…The different ionic liquids (EMITFB and EMITFSI) was used as compared to EMITFS since these ionic liquids have the same cation but different anions. This chapter depicts the study of the influence of ionic liquids on the different class of polymer structure and its effects on the healing properties. …”

Control schemes of voltage source converters in more-electronics power systems by He, Jinsong

“…Simulation results demonstrate that RL significantly improves the load-voltage tracking accuracy without sacrificing dc-link voltage stabilization. Finally, Chapter 7 concludes this thesis and summarizes three recommended research directions, followed by the list of the author’s publications and the bibliography of this thesis.…”

Part I : Peptide functionalized materials for gram-negative bacteria targeted PDT and LPS sensing. Part II : Small peptide and membrane lipid based self-assembled nanostructures fo... by Liu, Fang

“…In part II, my first project is the development of novel drug-loaded nanogels for pH sensitive drug release, which will be described in chapter 3. In our research, the most commonly used model drug doxorubicin (Dox) was conjugated to an Fmoc group protected short peptide through an acid-labile hydrazone-bond to form a peptide-Dox prodrug. …”
