Smart material is ideal for building microrobots that can mimic many functional properties of living tissues. For light-powered soft microrobot, light is used only as fuel for energy, while the microrobot body performs real mechanical actions. For fabricating soft light-powered microrobots, hydrogels ...
The rapid development of wearable, highly integrated, and flexible electronics has stimulated great demand for on-chip and miniaturized energy storage devices. By virtue of their high power density and long cycle life, micro-supercapacitors (MSCs), espec
Besides developing a practical device, this study proposed also a smart and cost-efficient sample preparation protocol. In detail, adhesive tape was stuck to the vegetable surface, peeled off, and dipped into a water–methanol solution achieving a LOD around 0.20 μM for malathion depending on ...
First, we introduce representative smart materials and general shape-changing mechanisms in 4D printing. Then, we focus on the design and recent demonstration of remote light activation, particularly detailing photothermal activations based on nanomaterial composites. We explain the light activation of 3D...
µ-LEDs are suitable for advanced display applications such as smartphones, wearable watches, micro-projectors, AR/VR, automotive heads-up displays, and ultra HD (>4K resolution) televisions due to their advantages such as better colour accuracy, higher colour saturation, high contrast ratio, hig...
