Multilayer Mechanical Transduction Activates Compression‐Mode Mechano‐Optical Response in Chiral Nematic Liquid Crystal Elastomers

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Multilayer chiral nematic liquid crystal elastomer films convert compressive loading into optically active deformation through compression‐to‐tension mode conversion. Compliant PDMS layers mediate in‐plane expansion and thickness reduction of the photonic elastomer, producing reversible color shifts under compression.
