Abstract
A photoactuator based on a tubular-shaped graphene composite bimorph is fabricated and shows reversible photoactuation with fast response and large deformation (deformation angle of ca. 479° in only 3.6 s), which is mostly attributed to the interfacial thermal stress. Various photoactuator devices based on the tubular bimorph, including a smart box and crawler-type robot that can mimic tank-track motion, are designed.Entities:
