An international team led by Professor Yilin Wu, Associate Professor of the Department of Â鶹ÒùÔºics at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) has made a novel conceptual advance in the field of active matter science. The ...
Stretchable electronic circuits are critical for soft robotics, wearable technologies, and biomedical applications. The current ways of making them, though, have limited their potential.
If you watch the leaves of a plant long enough, you may see them shift and turn toward the sunlight through the day. It happens slowly, but surely.
Arachnophobes often cite spiders' unpredictable movement as the basis of their fear, pointing out how each spindly leg seems to lift, flex and probe with a menacing degree of autonomy.
