Abstract

Anisotropic Mechanochromism In article number 2310658, Suk-kyun Ahn and co-workers create cholesteric liquid crystal elastomers (CLCEs) with slanted helices via direct ink writing. Notably, the anisotropic mechanochromic response of the printed CLCE to being stretched relative to the printing direction is observed. The anisotropic mechanochromism enables the creation of a unique strain sensor displaying intricate and programmable color patterns upon stretching.
