Conductive brush is available ,which promote bio-fuels battery to have a major breakthrough

University of Georgia researchers have successfully developed a few days ago of molecular conductive brush. The invention is significant because it means that mankind has to manufacture for the pacemaker,notebook battery,cochlear implant, prostheses and other precision instruments, bio-power fuel cells has taken the first step. United Kingdom, "Chemical Science" magazine, said the technology as "the field of nano-technology a major breakthrough."
Project by the University of Georgia chemist and two other co-completion of graduate school. They invented by the polymer brush chain and benzene thiophene chain attached to the ultra-thin film on top of books consisting of metal, of which benzene is the simplest aromatic molecule,acer batcl50l , can be used to produce chemical solvents, which contain a thiophene sulfur heteroatom five million heterocyclic compounds, present in coal tar and shale oil.
Lochlyn said brush is the molecule attached to the metal surface, high density polymer chain. Its structure similar to toothbrushes, metal film is brush handle,travelmate 290 battery, and the polymer is the equivalent of a brush. The researchers of this type of surface will be referred to as "polymer brush." In order to create a structure closely linked with the polymer chain, researchers must use "grafting" approach to growth in the metal surface.
By using this method,travelmate 4000 battery, the scientists first put a layer of thiophene thin film as a "surface"; and then the scientists used the method of polymerization in the basis of previous and gradually establish a chain of thiophene or benzene chain.
Lochlyn also said that the charm of the organic semiconductor is that its properties can be contained in the light of their own to change the number of organisms. For example, thiophene is an insulator, but when people use a certain technology will be a large number of elements linked to thiophene, the thiophene have a conductive polymer in nature. The thin film of polymer brush only 5-50 nanometers thick,travelmate 2300 battery, so even if the thickness is high optical microscope can not see.
The invention of micro-bio-fuel cells for the development of the good news. Lochlyn said that if the invention can take advantage of the energy source of the human body (such as glucose) of the bio-fuel cells, implanted in the body of the instrument will no longer need to replace the battery, but want to do this is not easy. For example, the body of the enzyme can be a very good chemical energy into electrical energy, but want to make use of enzymes for battery-powered but it is very difficult,aspire 1680 battery , because the human body contains natural enzymes to protect the insulating layer, which can prevent the electronic from the activity transferred to the electrode site. Lochlyn who want them to brush invention can provide a better load flow channel.
Lochlyn but at the same time that the research is still only in its infancy. Before them there are many obstacles,aspire 1410 battery, such as their charge is not aware of the many organic materials through the basic physical principles.
Lochlyn and his research team next plan is to take advantage of the invention "molecular brush" the appropriate equipment, such as chemical and biological sensors, artificial limbs, pacemakers, cochlear implant,travelmate 4500 battery,acer lcbtp03003 ,acer aspire 1300 , acer btp-apj1 , acer btp-aqj1 , acer btp-arj1 ,asus a42-a3 such as. If the experiments succeed, "molecular brush" to avoid these instruments and the human body have a living tissue rejection.
