Tunable Photothermal Actuators Based on a Pre-programmed Aligned Nanostructure
Abstract
For various applications, it is challenging but essential to obtain complex tunable mechanical actuations in response to environmental stimuli. Here, a general and effective strategy is developed to produce multiple types of photomechanical actuation (from phototropic/apheliotropic bending to three-dimensional helical buckling) by manipulating the orientation of one-dimensional nanomaterials. These materials are manipulated to mimic plants that generate diverse mechanical motions through the orientation of cellulose fibrils. The photomechanical actuations can be completed in milliseconds and can be performed reversibly without detectable fatigue after 100 000 cycles. This capacity to produce multiple types of photomechanical actuation is further developed to produce complex integrated movements, as demonstrated by a light-manipulated robotic arm and a solar energy harvesting system.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
