Abstract

In article 1500802 adaptive surface wrinkles, which exhibit a peristaltic motion and a size selective transportation of micro objects on bilayered soft materials under thermal stimulus, are described by Yasuaki Tokudome, Masahide Takahashi, and co-workers. The bilayered materials are made of thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and hybrid silica form responsive wrinkles of sub mm dimensions with temperature variation.
