Lowering of Electrostatic Actuator Driving Voltage and Increasing Generated Force Using Spontaneous Polarization of Ferroelectric Nematic Liquid Crystals (Adv. Phys. Res. 1/2022)

Mode Division Multiplexing
In article number 202200017, Suzushi Nishimura and co-workers show ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals that can be used as electrostatic actuator media. The ferroelectric material's spontaneous polarization drastically increases the electrostatic actuator's generated force by a factor of 1000, which also shows a linear response to the applied voltage. When a double-helical coil electrode device fabricated by rapid prototyping with a 3D printer is filled with this material, the actuator operates at several tens of volts. The potential exists for a low-voltage, high-power, and lightweight actuator with a simple structure, which may find applications in the near future as an artificial muscle that helps people to stand and walk or as an actuator that does not use rare metals.
