Abstract:Many living organisms have the superb structure-editing capacity for better adaptation in dynamic environments over the course of their life cycle. However, it's still challenging to replicate such natural structure-editing capacity into artificial hydrogel actuating systems for enhancing environment-interactive functions. Herein, we learn from the metamorphosis development of glowing octopus to construct proof-ofconcept fluorescent hydrogel actuators with life-like structure-editing capacity by developing a u… Show more
“…Since the information written by red fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) is easily encrypted and decrypted through the wavelengthdependent redlight/non-fluorescence transition of Eu-gel, various shape morphing and corresponding visual information can be conveyed by employing different environmental stimuli. 359 Furthermore, due to the contrary pH-responsiveness of cationic hydrogels and anionic hydrogels, two-way shape-morphable bilayer structures can be realized. Kumar et al constructed a bilayer structure consisting of the cationic CS hydrogel and the Fig.…”

In nature, plants and animals undergo remodeling to adapt to changes in their surroundings. Stimuli-responsive hydrogels, with their abundant water content and inherent responsiveness to environmental stimuli, serve as ideal...
