Bioinspired environment-adaptive color-shape morphing by azobenzene-functionalized cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers
Yanping Deng, Dien Huang, Pei Zhang, Bixian Yang, Laurens T. de Haan, Jiawen ChenInspired by the synergistic color and morphology regulation of cephalopods, a soft actuator based on azobenzene-functionalized cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers is developed.
