Photomotility of quasi-twisted nematic liquid crystal soft robots |
| 초록 |
Liquid crystal soft robots have been demonstrated autonomous motility on exposure to light irradiation. This remote control capability of untethered soft robotic systems are attractive to avoid on-board weight penalty in battery-powered systems or entanglement of connection lines with external power sources in tethered systems. Previous study on photomotility of azobenzene-functionalized liquid crystal polymers networks (azo-LCNs) employed twisted nematic geometry where nematic director rotates 90° from top to bottom of the azo-LCN film. In this study, we discuss effects of oblique angled quasi-twisted nematic (q-TN) molecular alignments on photomotility of the azo-LCNs with emphasis on geometry and velocity of the light-fueled soft robots. |
