Polymer-dispersed liquid crystal elastomers

Liquid crystal elastomers are promising for building actuators due to excellent thermomechanical response, but it is challenging to prepare them at macroscale with arbitrary shape. Here, the authors overcome this restriction by doping microparticles to the polymer matrix without employing mechanical...
