Gecko-inspired arrays of micropillars made of a liquid crystalline elastomer display thermoswitchable adhesive behavior as a consequence of elongation changes caused by reorientation of the mesogens at the nematic-isotropic (N-I) phase transition.
受启发于壁虎的微柱列阵列由液晶弹性体制成,由于中间相到各向同性相(N-I)转变时介晶的重取向引起的伸长变化,表现出热致可切换的粘附行为。
