Abstract
Soft Materials In article number 2416095, Sebastien Rochat, Mark S. Workentin, Pierangelo Gobbo, and co-workers introduce two new hydrogels that respond to light and temperature, allowing creation of soft materials with controlled mechanical patterns. Applications include switchable actuators and mechanical data storage, with properties measured through microindentation. This advances soft materials science for robotics and information storage.
