Method to Form DNA Hydrogels and Shape Changing Devices

Unmet NeedSmart materials are designed materials with one or more properties that can be significantly changed by external stimuli. Materials and devices that can change shape are critical to the function of soft robots, programmable matter, and many smart therapeutics. However, current shape change materials cannot be changed without a specific chemical...

Method to form DNA hydrogels and shape changing devices and actuators

Unmet NeedMaterials and devices capable of changing their shape are critical to the function of soft robots, programmable matter, and smart therapeutics. Many ‘smart’ materials and devices feature a stimulus-responsive architecture that allows for the shrinking or swelling of designated regions under controlled conditions. These mechanical deformations...
