Electro-actuated hydrogel walkers with dual responsive legs

SOFT MATTER, 10(9), 1337–1348.

By: D. Morales n, E. Palleau n, M. Dickey n  & O. Velev n 

Contributors: D. Morales n, E. Palleau n, M. Dickey n  & O. Velev n 

MeSH headings : Electrolytes / chemistry; Hydrogel, Polyethylene Glycol Dimethacrylate; Polymers / chemistry; Robotics; Solutions / chemistry
topics (OpenAlex): Micro and Nano Robotics; Advanced Materials and Mechanics; Advanced Sensor and Energy Harvesting Materials
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that "osmotically passive" fixed charges play an important role in controlling the bending magnitude of the gel networks and exemplify a simple way to move and manipulate soft matter devices and robots in aqueous solutions. (via Semantic Scholar)

Reversible patterning and actuation of hydrogels by electrically assisted ionoprinting

NATURE COMMUNICATIONS, 4(1).

By: E. Palleau n, D. Morales n, M. Dickey n  & O. Velev n 

Contributors: E. Palleau n, D. Morales n, M. Dickey n  & O. Velev n 

topics (OpenAlex): Advanced Materials and Mechanics; Hydrogels: synthesis, properties, applications; Advanced Sensor and Energy Harvesting Materials
TL;DR: An ‘ionoprinting’ technique with the capability to topographically structure and actuate hydrated gels in two and three dimensions by locally patterning ions via their directed injection and complexation, assisted by electric fields is introduced. (via Semantic Scholar)

2013 journal article

Self-Healing Stretchable Wires for Reconfigurable Circuit Wiring and 3D Microfluidics

ADVANCED MATERIALS, 25(11), 1589–1592.

By: E. Palleau n, S. Reece n, S. Desai n, M. Smith * & M. Dickey n 

author keywords: self-healing polymer; liquid metal; stretchable wire; reconfigurable electrical wiring; 3D microfluidics
topics (OpenAlex): Advanced Sensor and Energy Harvesting Materials; Advanced Materials and Mechanics; Surface Modification and Superhydrophobicity
TL;DR: These stretchable wires can be completely severed with scissors and rapidly self-heal both mechanically and electrically at ambient conditions, and can be re-assembled in a different order to form complex microfluidic networks in 2D or 3D space. (via Semantic Scholar)
