Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>An electrochemical actuator based on a graphene‐stabilized silver‐nanoparticle (AgNP) electrode</bold> is presented. Owing to the actuation characteristics — persistence, fast strain rate, and wide frequency response — the strategy of hybridizing reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and AgNPs is believed to be of great value for developing more RGO/metal hybrid–based electrochemical actuators or sensors for various applications. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1v8t2sgg" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
