Photochemical Fuel Carrier Molecules for Robotic Embodied Energy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 23, 22 April 2026.
We designed a novel fuel carrier photoresponsive molecule for on‐demand energy storage and release. Carrier molecules undergo bond scission under UV light to release chemical fuel and locally generate propulsive Marangoni flows. We demonstrate this photochemical embodied energy strategy in small‐scale robots and active matter systems, enabling ...
