Responsive Materials Configured for Micro- and Nanoactuation

Serban F. Peteu

Technova Corporation, 1926 Turner, Lansing, Michigan 48906, USA, sfpeteu{at}umich.edu

The article reviews smart materials configured for actuation, artificial channels, and pore sensing. The electroactive polymers (EAPs, also referred to as inherently conductive polymers) are outlined with polypyrrole (PPy) as the main example. Next, the PPy nanofabrication by template-synthesis is briefly outlined. This mini-review concludes with several recently reported functionalized nanotube membranes as examples of artificial membrane-supported ion channels.

Key Words: MEMS • nanoactuation • electroactive polymer • template synthesis • nanotube
