Sample preparation steps (e.g., preconcentration and separation) are key to enhancing sensitivity and reliability in biomedical and analytical chemistry. However, conventional methods (e.g., ...

Soft continuum robots have garnered much attention due to their inherent compliance and interaction ability in complex scenarios. However, the absence of rigid supports in them often causes ...

Here, we present a template-free, integrative strategy that leverages interlayer stress-induced 3D shape morphing in xerogel-PDMS bilayer materials triggered by temperature variations. This process ...
