Light-activated shape morphing and light-tracking materials using biopolymer-based programmable photonic nanostructures
Programmable optical actuation in a material provides special possibilities for applications. Here, the authors combine photonic crystals with elastomers to provide material composites with tunable deformation and actuation as a function of moving light.
