Surfaces Decorated with Enantiomorphically Pure Polymer Nanohelices via Hierarchical Chirality Transfer across Multiple Length Scales
(SpringerWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-03)
Mesoscale chiral materials are prepared by lithographic methods, assembly of chiral building blocks, and through syntheses in the presence of polarized light. Typically, these processes result in micrometer‐sized structures, ...
Sharing of Strain Between Nanofiber Forests and Liquid Crystals Leads to Programmable Responses to Electric Fields
(Clarendon PressWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-07)
Fibers embedded in soft matrices are widely encountered in biological systems, with the fibers providing mechanical reinforcement or encoding of instructions for shape changes. Here, the mechanical coupling of end-attached ...
