Bioinspired smart materials with synergistic allochroic luminescence and complex deformation are expected to
play an important role in many areas of science and
technology. However, it is still challenging to fabricate such
soft actuators with high programmability that can be manipulated in situ with high spatial resolution. Herein, we have
incorporated terminally functionalized aggregation-induced
emission active tetraphenylethene derivative and photochromic
spiropyran moieties into the networks of liquid crystal
elastomers through covalent bonding to obtain the synergistic
photochromic luminescence and programmable soft actuators.
Bio-mimic functions and light-induced auxetic metamateriallike devices were shown to be feasible based on the combination of assembly and origami-programming strategy. These
bioinspired devices with synergistic photochromic luminescence and complex photodeformation abilities provide an
elegant strategy to design multi-functional liquid crystal
actuators.
