The scale matters: A review on stimuli‐responsive microrobots categorized by scale for biomedical applications

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
We systematically summarize how each scale dictates fundamental choices in design feature, manufacturing technology, driving mechanism, and control strategy, which are inherently governed by scale‐dominated physical principles. Furthermore, the application of scale‐determined operation modes of microrobots across different stages of medical ...

Optical‐controlled magnon transport based on spin crossover switched molecular magnets

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
A cyanide‐bridged W(V)–Fe(II) spin‐crossover single crystal was integrated into a magnon transport device, enabling reversible optical control of magnon transport through photo‐switched spin states. Abstract Molecule‐based devices that combine the advantages of fast time response and extremely low manipulation/transmission energy consumption of light ...
