Articles comprising a resistor comprising core shell liquid metal encapsulates and methods of detecting an impact on an article using a resistor comprising core shell liquid metal encapsulates are disclosed. Such core shell liquid metal encapsulates enable simple but robust impact sensors as such encapsulates comprise a highly electrically resistant metal oxide shell that prevents such encapsulates from coalescing. Yet when such shell is ruptured, the highly conductive bulk liquid metal is released. Such liquid metal changes electrical properties of a sensor comprising core shell liquid metal encapsulates which in turn is evidence of the aforementioned impact. Intellectual Property U.S. Patent No. 10,900,848 B2, that issued on January 26, 2021, and entitled ‘‘Articles comprising a resistor comprising core shell liquid metal encapsulates and method of detecting an impact.’’ II. The present invention relates to core shell liquid metal encapsulates comprising multi-functional ligands, networks comprising such encapsulates and processes of making and using such encapsulates and networks. When subjected to strain, such network’s conductivity is enhanced, thus allowing the network to serve as a healing agent that restores at least a portion of the conductivity in an adjacent conductor.

The present invention relates to articles comprising core shell liquid metal encapsulate networks and methods of using core shell liquid metal encapsulate networks to control AC signals and power. Such method permits the skilled artisan to control the radiation, transmission, reflection and modulation of an AC signal and power. As a result, AC system properties such as operation frequency, polarization, gain, directionality, insertion loss, return loss, and impedance can be controlled under strain.

The present invention relates to substrates comprising a network comprising core shell liquid metal encapsulates comprising multifunctional ligands and processes of making and using such substrates. The core shell liquid metal particles are linked via ligands to form such network. Such networks volumetric conductivity increases under strain which maintains a substrate’s resistance under strain. The constant resistance results in consistent thermal heating via resistive heating. Thus allowing a substrate that comprises such network to serve as an effective heat provider.

Abstract of Patents and Patent Application(s)

    I. Articles comprising a resistor comprising core shell liquid 
metal encapsulates and methods of detecting an impact on an article 
using a resistor comprising core shell liquid metal encapsulates are 
disclosed. Such core shell liquid metal encapsulates enable simple but 
robust impact sensors as such encapsulates comprise a highly 
electrically resistant metal oxide shell that prevents such 
encapsulates from coalescing. Yet when such shell is ruptured, the 
highly conductive bulk liquid metal is released. Such liquid metal 
changes electrical properties of a sensor comprising core shell liquid 
metal encapsulates which in turn is evidence of the aforementioned 
impact.

entitled ``Articles comprising a resistor comprising core shell liquid 
metal encapsulates and method of detecting an impact.''
    II. The present invention relates to core shell liquid metal 
encapsulates comprising multi-functional ligands, networks comprising 
such encapsulates and processes of making and using such encapsulates 
and networks. When subjected to strain, such network's conductivity is 
enhanced, thus allowing the network to serve as a healing agent that 
restores at least a portion of the conductivity in an adjacent 
conductor.

15, 2021. Such patent and patent application being entitled ``Core 
shell liquid metal encapsulates comprising multi-functional ligands and 
networks comprising same''
    III. The present invention relates to articles comprising core 
shell liquid metal encapsulate networks and methods of using core shell 
liquid metal encapsulate networks to control AC signals and power. Such

    U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 16/580,652, that was filed on 
September 24, 2019, and entitled ``Articles comprising core shell 
liquid metal encapsulate networks and method to control alternating 
current signals and power''.
    IV. The present invention relates to substrates comprising a 
network comprising core shell liquid metal encapsulates comprising 
multi-functional ligands and processes of making and using such

    The Department of the Air Force may grant the prospective license 
unless a timely objection is received that sufficiently shows the grant 
of the license would be inconsistent with the Bayh-Dole Act or 
implementing regulations. A competing application for a patent license 
agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and received by 
the Air Force within the period for timely objections, will be treated 
as an objection and may be considered as an alternative to the proposed 
license.
