Thickness-Dependent Swelling Behavior of Vapor-Deposited Hydrogel Thin Films

Thickness-Dependent Swelling Behavior of Vapor-Deposited Hydrogel Thin Films

Hydrogel thin films containing temperature sensitive chemical functionalities (such as <i>N</i>-isopropylacrylamide, NIPAAm) are particularly interesting for sensor and actuator setups. Complex 3D structures can be conformally coated by the solvent free technique initiated Chemical Vapor...
