Light‐Fueled Climbing of Monolithic Torsional Soft Robots via Molecular Engineering

Light‐Fueled Climbing of Monolithic Torsional Soft Robots via Molecular Engineering

Azobenzene‐functionalized liquid crystalline polymer networks (azo‐LCNs) are promising candidates for light‐fueled contactless manipulation of miniaturized soft robots through embedding photoactive molecular switches into alignment‐programmable LCNs. In particular, the 3D helical geometry of azo‐LCN...
