Abstract: C1.00047 : Electromagnetic transport in magnetorheological elastomer composites
Author:
We present systematic measurements of the electron transport properties and
optical response of gold-coated-iron (Au/Fe)-elastomer composite materials.
By mixing micron-sized Au/Fe particles with silicone-based liquid elastomer,
we produce two types of magnetorheological elastomer composites (MREs):
those in which the particles are aligned by an external magnetic field prior
to elastomer hardening and those in which the particles are left in random
arrangement. By applying modest external stress or an external magnetic
field to the two types of post-hardened MREs, we control the transport
properties and optical response and observe significant differences in their
behavior.
