  • Ion beam modification of solids : towards Intelligent Materials
    Materials Science and Engineering A-structural Materials Properties Microstructure and Processing, 1998
    Co-Authors: Toshinori Takagi
    Abstract:

    Abstract The feature of an Intelligent Material is the introduction of the concept of information science into the genuine properties and functions of Material. Therefore a Material itself can fulfil combined functions such as a sensor function, a processor function, an actuator (effector) function and a feedback–feedforward function. The development of Intelligent Materials is important for safety technology and human engineering such as life prediction, real-time monitoring of accidents, emergency measures and development of drug delivery systems (DDS). The present status of ion engineering technology to support the development of Intelligent Materials for synthesis of new Materials or high performance multilayer thin films, for controlling crystallinity or composition and for modification of surfaces by atomic state ions or ionized clusters is described to illustrate–show that ion engineering technology is powerful and promising for the development of Intelligent Materials.

  • Concept of and the recent research on Intelligent Materials
    3rd International Conference on Intelligent Materials and 3rd European Conference on Smart Structures and Materials, 1996
    Co-Authors: Toshinori Takagi
    Abstract:

    Intelligent Materials are the Materials possessing the following function in themselves such as the sensing function which detect the environmental change or their inner anomaly, the processor function which can judge the situation to lead the conclusion, and actuating function that the Materials themselves can take action or give instruction. The structural and functional Materials simply utilize the native properties and functions of their own. On the other hand, the Intelligent Materials are based on a new concept where the information science will be united with their own properties and functions. The Intelligent Materials can be very important and useful in many fields and their interdisciplinary fields such as the medicine, pharmacy, bioengineering, polymer, metalugy, semiconductor, ceramics, electronics, machinery. It is also extremely important in the human engineering, safety engineering, environmental study and study on the resources. In this report, the category of the Intelligent Material and the recent activities of researches on the Intelligent Materials are discussed.© (1996) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.

  • Recent research on Intelligent Materials
    Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures, 1996

    Abstract:

    Intelligent Materials are the Materials possessing functions in themselves such as the sensing function which detects the environmental change or their inner anomaly, the processor function which can judge the situation to lead the conclusion, and the actuating function which activates the Materials within themselves to take action or give instruction. The structural and functional Materials- simply utilize the native properties and functions of their own. On the other hand, the Intelligent Materials are based on a new concept where the information science will be united with their own properties and functions. The Intelligent Materials are very important and useful in many fields and the interdisciplinary fields such as the medicine, pharmacy, bioengineering, polymer, metallurgy, semiconductor, ceramics, electronics, and machinery. It is also an extremely important Material in human engineering, safety engineering, environmental research, and for study of the resources. In this report, the category of the Intelligent Material and the recent activities of research on the Intelligent Materials are discussed.

  • Scratching the surface of Intelligent Materials: characterisation methods for conducting polymer films
    Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures, 1994
    Co-Authors: Zhao Huijun, Abdolreza Mirmohseni, William E Price, Afshad Talaie
    Abstract:

    One essential aspect of an Intelligent Material is that it has some properties which are dynamic which can be utilised and controlled. It is well known that a number of polymeric Materials are inherently dynamic. In order to utilise the full potential of polymers for use as Intelligent Materials it is imperative that processes occurring at the polymer interface are well understood. A large range of surface and other techniques are available to characterise this. At IPRL we has devel oped over a number of years Intelligent Material systems based on conducting polymers such as polypyrrole. This range of Materials has been used as coated films, particles or stand-alone mem branes in systems designed either to sense/monitor the environment or to effect a separation. Poly pyrrole based systems are able to perform sophisticated functions because the polymer is a dynamic Material which can change its chemical and physical properties by application of an electrical poten tial (thereby altering the oxidation state...
