Bioinspired Twisted Artificial Muscles with Enhanced Performance for Underwater Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A climbing plant‐inspired twisted artificial muscle (TAM) with a braided configuration and seal‐inspired thermal insulation enables high‐performance underwater actuation. Enhanced deformation, reduced heat dissipation, and rapid motion are validated through a bionic ray that exhibits straight and turning motions.

Edible Pneumatic Battery for Sustained and Repeated Robot Actuation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents an edible energy source and valve system to power soft, pneumatically driven edible robots. A chemical reaction between sodium bicarbonate and citric acid generates carbon dioxide gas, and a pressure‐triggered edible valve enables self‐repetitive motion of the edible actuator.

Atomistic Understanding of 2D Monatomic Phase‐Change Material for Non‐Volatile Optical Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Antimony is a promising monatomic phase‐change material. Scaling down the film thickness is necessary to prolong the amorphous‐state lifetime, but it alters the optical properties. The combined computational and experimental study shows that, as thickness decreases, the extinction coefficient and optical contrast are reduced in the near‐infrared ...
