Objectives
1. Develop an effective approach to manipulate a coiling viscous jet by electrical charging 2. Achieve printing of submicron-/nano-sized curled fibers with controlled pattern, orientation and periodicity by electro-coiling 3. Understand the relationship between the electro-coiling conditions and the characteristics of the printed fibers
