Figure 4: Fluorescence intensity and feature size of the field-induced fluorescent patterns.

From: Cephalopod-inspired design of electro-mechano-chemically responsive elastomers for on-demand fluorescent patterning

Figure 4

(a) Cyclic electric fields applied to the EMCR film and (b) the corresponding fluorescence intensity. The green shadow domains indicate that the EMCR film is under green light (~545 nm) for 3 min. (c) Crater wavelengths and internal diameters of the fluorescent rings as a function of the thickness of the buffer substrate. (d) Fluorescence intensity and (e) calculated first invariant of the EMCR film along a radial path of the fluorescent ring. (f) The maximum first invariant in EMCR film as a function of applied electric field. The critical electric field for wrinkling instability is E0=33.5 kV mm−1.
