(CNA photo) TAIPEI (Taiwan News) A National Taiwan University (NTU) professor has been found to be leading research programs sponsored by the Chinese government without approval from Taiwan s Ministry of Education (MOE). In a statement released on Thursday (Feb. 18), the MOE said Lee Duu-jong (李篤中), a chemical engineering professor at NTU, had applied for research grants from the National Natural Science Foundation of China through the Harbin Institute of Technology since 2009. It pointed out that he had taken on the lead role in three Chinese research programs without notifying the Taiwanese authorities.

Described recently in the
Science Advances journal, the device is so flexible that it can be worn like a bracelet, ring, or any other accessory that makes contact with the skin. The device also taps into an individual’s natural heat using thermoelectric generators to turn the internal temperature of the human into electricity.
In the future, we want to be able to power your wearable electronics without having to include a battery.

For more than 15 years, researchers at The University of Texas at Dallas and their collaborators in the U.S., Australia, South Korea and China have fabricated artificial muscles by twisting and coiling carbon nanotube or polymer yarns. When thermally powered, these muscles actuate by contracting their length when heated and returning to their initial length when cooled. Such thermally driven artificial muscles, however, have limitations.
