Abstract

In article number 1801023, Sung-Hoon Ahn and co-workers report shape memory alloy (SMA) microactuators providing an application for artificial muscle fibers. The diamond-shaped frame structure of the actuators allows up to 60 percent strain in tensile motion and its high surface-area-to-volume ratio enhances thermal response of SMA to achieve 1.6 kHz actuation speed with optical heating.
