Terry Shyu, MSE PhD Student and Graduate Research Assistant, shows a stretchable conductor made out of mesh structure of carbon nanotubes in the North Campus Research Complex in Ann Arbor, MI on June 1, 2015.

 

Shyu is part of a collaboration with Nicholas Kotov, Joseph B. and Florence V. Cejka Professor of Chemical Engineering; Sharon Glotzer, Stuart W. Churchill Collegiate Professor of Chemical Engineering; and Matt Shlian, Artist and Adjunct Lecturer in the School of Art & Design.

 

Shlian provided the inspiration for the nano structures with his nano-kirigami art that Glotzer built computer models from and Kotov and Shyu tested in lab.
