A processable, high-performance dielectric elastomer and multilayering process
Science, 2022 Dielectric elastomers (DEs) can act as deformable capacitors that generate mechanical work in response to an electric field. DEs are often based on commercial acrylic and silicone elastomers.

An elastomer with ultrahigh strain-induced crystallization
Science Advances, 2023 Strain-induced crystallization (SIC) prevalently strengthens, toughens, and enables an elastocaloric effect in elastomers. However, the crystallinity induced by mechanical stretching in common elastomers (e.g., natural rubber) is typically below 20%, and
