Hydrogel-based multi-stimuli responsive cilia

Glazer P.J., Leuven J., An H., Lemay S.G., Mendes E., Delft University of Technology, NL

We present large-scale multi-responsive cilia arrays that can be stimulated environmentally (via a pH change), electrically or magnetically. By means of micro-fabrication techniques, we created high-aspect ratio molds on which the polymer solution was cast. [...]
