Soft shape-programmable surfaces by fast electromagnetic actuation of liquid metal networks

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Xinchen Ni from the Northwestern University, Durham, NC, USA have published the research work: Soft shape-programmable surfaces by fast electromagnetic actuation of liquid metal networks, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 19/01/2022
• how: This result is also in agreement with FEA prediction as shown in Supplementary Fig 5. The liquid-solid phase transition associated with the liquid metal features can be exploited for shape fixation.
• future: A compelling extension of this concept is in a class of dynamic 3D display system that coordinates morphing of the geometry . . .
