Laser-triggerable elastomeric composites for soft electronics and robotics

Figure 1. Mechanism of laser-triggered remote decomposition of DPI-HFP/Fe3O4 NPs/Ecoflex 00-30 composites. (A) A schematic illustrating the degradation mechanism of DPI-HFP/Fe3O4 NPs/silicone composites under femtosecond pulsed laser irradiation. The DPI-HFP/Fe3O4 NPs/silicone composites (left) produce fluoride ions via the photothermal effect of Fe3O4 NPs (middle), leading to their decomposition into liquid residue and Fe3O4 NPs (right). (B) Serial images showing the DPI-HFP (10 wt.%)/Fe3O4 NPs (1.00 wt.%)/Ecoflex 00-30 composite before (left), during (middle), and after (right) 800 nm laser irradiation (spot size = 8 mm (diameter), pulse width = ~ 100 fs, power = 0.25 W) for 15 min, without prior UV or heat treatment. NP: Nanoparticle; DPI-HFP: diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate; UV: ultraviolet.
