We propose and demonstrate both flexible and stretchable blue light-emitting diodes based on core/shell InGaN/GaN quantum well microwires embedded in polydimethylsiloxane membranes with strain-insensitive transparent electrodes involving single-walled carbon nanotubes. InGaN/GaN core-shell microwires were grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy, encapsulated into a polydimethylsiloxane film, and then released from the growth substrate. The fabricated free-standing membrane of light-emitting diodes with contacts of single-walled carbon nanotube films can stand up to 20% stretching while maintaining efficient operation. Membrane-based LEDs show less than 15% degradation of electroluminescence intensity after 20 cycles of stretching thus opening an avenue for highly deformable inorganic devices.
The paper researched the sustainable functioning of the closed self-regulating biological system based on macrophytes Fucus vesiculosus, Fucus inflatus, Laminaria saccharina and Chlorella vulgaris. The authors describe the methods and apparatus for monitoring the composition and control of biological experiments with such a system, which is offered to spend on board the International Space Station (ISS). We also consider the option of the experiment on board the small satellite. The main task of automatically controlled experiment is to ensure the long-term functioning of the isolated biological system under conditions of weightlessness. Based on the analysis of the interaction structure of the main components of biological systems under study was developed a mathematical model of a closed biological system on the basis of aquatic organisms and holds its computer simulation, with which defined the conditions for the forecast can be carried out and state control investigated the conditions of maintaining it stable life. We consider the automated control system of a biological system, providing its stable operation. The main indicator of the functioning of biological systems encouraged to use the amount of oxygen in the air section and dissolved in water. As a biological control system parameters used by the lighting level and temperature of the water environment. In the experiment on autonomous spacecraft (microsatellite) proposed to manage the dampers in the heat-insulating sheath. The dependencies for defining the threshold oxygen concentration at which a correction of the control parameters.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
