Direct Laser Writing of Magnetic Micro Actuators With a Stimulus‐Responsive Compliant Hinge
This study presents a versatile modular design strategy for adaptive 3D microactuators. Using two‐photon‐induced C,H insertion reactions within solid polymer layers, chemically distinct hinge and stimulus responsive materials are patterned in one step. The hinge's properties enable tunable motion, mechanical control, and reconfigurable actuation across

Incorporating Si into Sb2Se3: Tailoring Optical Phase Change Materials via Nanocomposites
We study the structural, optical, and thermal effects of adding silicon to Sb2Se3 and demonstrate that the as‐deposited solid solution phase segregates after electro‐thermal switching, creating a nanocomposite with effective‐medium properties and a phase‐change response.
