摘要

Electrospinning is a useful technique that can generate micro and nanometer-sized fibers. Modification of the electrospinning parameters,such as deposition target geometry,can generate uniaxially aligned fibers for use in diverse applications ranging from tissue engineering to material fabrication. For example,meshes of fibers have been shown to mimic the extracellular matrix networks for use in smooth muscle cell proliferation. Further,aligned fibers can guide neurites to grow along the direction of the fibers. Here we present a novel electrospinning deposition target that combines the benefits of two previously reported electrodes: the standard parallel electrodes and the spinning wheel with a sharpened edge. This new target design significantly improves aligned fiber yield. Specifically,the target consists of two parallel aluminum plates with sharpened edges containing a bifurcating angle of 26°. Electric field computations show a larger probable area of aligned electric field vectors. This new deposition target allows fibers to deposit on a larger cross-sectional area relative to the existing parallel electrode and at least doubles the yield of uniaxially aligned fibers. Further,fiber alignment and morphology are preserved after collection from the deposition target.
