Resistive heating elements are embedded in a shape memory polymer actuator. Sensing elements are associated with the resistive heating elements. The sensing elements sense changes in the resistive heating elements and correlate the changes with deformation of the shape memory polymer actuator.

The invention relates to a process and a system for 3-dimentional (3D) fabrication of sub-micron structures and is established by local electrochemical deposition methods.

Meniscus-confined three-dimensional electrodeposition

A rhenium (Re) nanostructure is described. The rhenium nanostructure is an elongated nanostructure, such as, nanowire, nanorod, nanotube, branched nanostructure, and hollow nanostructure. The Re nanostructure may be a binary Re-metal nanotube, a binary Re-metal nanowire, and a binary Re-metal nanorod. The binary Re-metal nanostructure is a nanostructure composed of Re and at least one metal or non-metal. The metal may be In, Sn, Sb, Pb, and/or Bi. The nanostructure is in powder or in liquid form.
