The use of nanofibres strain gauges for construction of linear sensors
Kirchner, Jan ; Kůr, Jan (referee) ; Pernikář, Jiří (advisor)
The aim of this thesis was to determine the basic characteristics of behavior of nanofiber strain gauges and on the basis of experimental measurements to confirm the suitability of the design of the length sensors. There was a product designed with a swivel arm whose rotation burdens the nanofiber strain gauge affixed to the flat side of the cut. Some measurements were carried out to find out a suitable direction of the loading pressure and to reveal the area showing the linear behavior. This linear area is approximately between 44 ÷ 92 % of the range of the nanostrain gauge (0% maximum load tensile, 100% maximum load pressure). Other measurements dealt with temporal stability of the output value at each point. The outcome of these experiments was to determine the methodology and to propose the design of sensors for further tests, the aim of which was to develop a sensor for measuring small diameters (from 1 to 5 mm).

Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy of doped PVDF fibers
Smejkalová, Tereza ; Papež, Nikola (referee) ; Sobola, Dinara (advisor)
Tato diplomová práce zkoumá flexibilní materiál k produkci elektřiny založený na piezoelektrickém polymeru Polyvinylidenfluorid (PVDF). Inkorporací piezoaktivní keramiky lze vlastnosti piezoelektrického polymeru PVDF významně zlepšit a převést na užitečnou elektrickou energii. PVDF byl vytvořen elektrostatickým zvlákňováním do vláken o tloušťce 1,5-0,3 µm a poté studován různými analytickými metodami. Tato práce nabízí popis elektrostatického zvlákňování, přípravu vzorků a teoretický úvod do analytických metod, kterým byly vzorky podrobeny. Morfologie a distribuce nanostrukturované keramiky do polymerní matrice PVDF byla pozorována použitím skenovací elektronové mikroskopie (SEM) a energiově disperzní spektroskopie (EDX). Pro tvorbu fáze a podrobné fázové složení byly vzorky charakterizovány infračervenou spektroskopií s Fourierovou transformací (FTIR). Práce také obsahuje analýzu s použitím Ramanovy spektroskopie, metody používané k identifikaci a porovnání chemických sloučenin. Elektrické vlastnosti byly studovány dielektrickou spektroskopií a je poskytnuta korelace se složením. Jednotlivé komponenty dotovaných vláken jsou charakterizovány a vyhodnocovány v souvislosti s jejich budoucím využitím v senzorech.

Nanofiber membranes generating singlet oxygen with magnetic separation
Liška, Vojtěch ; Mosinger, Jiří (advisor) ; Kubíček, Vojtěch (referee)
This thesis focuses on the preparation and study of a new type of photoactive polyurethane nanofiber membrane with encapsulated 5,10,15,20-meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) photosensitizer and maghemite nanoparticles. The membrane was prepared by electrospinning and shows effective photogeneration of O2 (1 Δg) and photoantibacterial effect on the surface. The membrane can be easily separated by a magnetic field. The magnetic behaviour of the maghemite nanoparticles was studied using Mössbauer spectroscopy. Their size was estimated by DLS. The final nanofiber membrane was characterized by UV-VIS, emission spectroscopy, and by electronic microscopy (SEM). The kinetics of O2 (1 Δg) generation was studied by time-resolved spectroscopy and the relative efficiency of photooxidation was studied using external acceptor of O2 (1 Δg). Significant photoantibacterial properties against bacteria strain Escherichia coli were detected on the surface of the membrane functionalized with TPP photosensitizer.

Photoctive Nanofiber Membranes for Oxygen Sensing
Ludačka, Pavel ; Mosinger, Jiří (advisor) ; Lang, Kamil (referee)
In this work, luminescent oxygen sensors based on the quenching of porphyrin sensor molecules encapsulated in a nanofibrous polymer matrix prepared by electrospinning were prepared and studied. The prepared sensors were characterized using electron microscopy, absorption and emission spectra, including time-resolved emission spectra. The sensitivity of the sensors was optimized in different polymer matrices, concentrations of porphyrin sensor molecules, and the thickness of the nanofibrous sensor layer. Furthermore, the photogeneration of singlet oxygen and the resulting antibacterial properties of the sensor nanofiber membrane were demonstrated. Key words Photoactive, nanofiber, oxygen, singlet oxygen, optical sensor

Plasma modification of powder materials
ČERNÝ, Pavel
Thesis is focused on plasma modification of materials. The work has the character of a search of available literature, especially the papers presented in impacted journals. The aim is to provide a broader overview of the subject. The first section describes the most commonly modified powdered materials. The second part is focused on the plasma modification, the reasons for its use, capabilities and benefits respectively and disadvantages of these processes. The following sections are devoted to plasma discharges, plasma reactors, aspects of plasma modification and companies engaged in production, or modification of powders. Each chapter is intended to provide an overview of the modified powder materials, processes within the plasma discharges, construction and use of plasma reactors, plasma modification of aspects and the market situation in the context of powdered materials and companies dealing with the plasma modification.
