Before you sign on for a permanent metal-containing implant, or even metal-based inks for tattoos, you may want to ask yourself a couple questions. You might not worry about metals interfering with ...

These novel materials can change, fix, and retain their shape reversibly by using magnetic fields and ultraviolet light. (Nanowerk News) Magnetic micropillar arrays consist of tiny, vertical ...

A liquid metal droplet that splits and merges to pump fluid offers a simple, low-voltage engine for powering soft robots, wearables, and microfluidic systems. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Soft machines are ...

DS-CAN-based magnetic micropillar arrays allow reversible, on-demand, and contactless shape reconfiguration and shape fixation, through exposure to ultraviolet light at room temperature or upon ...
