Stochastic Entanglement of Deterministic Origami Tentacles For Robust Robotic Grasping
This study introduces an origami tentacle gripper to robustly grasp objects‐in air, underwater, and even in orbital space‐by exploiting a synergy between local, deterministic deformation programming and global, stochastic entanglements. A single origami tentacle can be designed to coil with a simple tendon pull.

Unveiling the Ultralow Thermal Conductivity of Hybrid Perovskites
In hybrid perovskites, thermal energy flows through lattice vibrations of the framework (48%–65%) and organic molecules (35%–52%). When the disorder introduced by organic molecules is excluded, the temperature dependence of the vibrational thermal conductivity results from the lattice framework transits from ∼T0 to ∼T−1, and the value doubles at room ...

Geometry‐Encoded Actuation as a Structural Interaction Layer in Origami Robots
We present geometry‐encoded actuation (GEA), a design framework that integrates multistable origami with liquid crystal elastomer actuators to encode environmental interactions into autonomous structural responses. GEA enables programmable shape transformation without continuous sensing or complex control, achieving robust adaptive manipulation and ...
