4D Printing Scheme Enables Light-Controlled Soft Robotics
ST. LUCIA, Australia, Jan. 15, 2024 — The process of 4D printing is an extension of 3D printing, in which solid objects are created using materials that can change shape when exposed to certain stimuli like heat, water or light. At the University of Queensland’s Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (AIBN), researchers have printed 4D structures using liquid metal polymers that can be coaxed into performing a range of mechanical tasks with infrared lasers. AIBN researchers Ruirui Qiao (left) and Liwen...

Enhanced Photosensors Exploit Wavelength-Shifting Properties of Nanoparticles
LEMONT, Ill., Sept. 14, 2018 — Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory are using nanotechnology to improve the ability of photodetectors to handle the UV radiation produced in high-energy physics experiments. Physicists explore basic...
Nanolaser Inspired by Nature Changes Colors Like a Chameleon
EVANSTON, Ill., June 22, 2018 — A new nanolaser, with a design inspired by nature, can change color using the same nanomechanics that a chameleon uses. A chameleon changes color by controlling the spacing of nanocrystals on its skin. The nanolaser exploits periodic arrays of metal...
Gaining Nanoscale Control over Quantum Systems
OAK RIDGE, Tenn., April 9, 2018 — Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and Vanderbilt University have developed methods to help control the “leaky,” dissipative behavior inherent in quantum systems and materials. To do so, they examined the quantum nature...
