受Molecular Systems Design & Engineering杂志编辑邀请，多模态辐射技术研究中心胡亮副教授等以“Recent Advances in Stimuli-Responsive Polymers for Sensing and Actuation”为题，综述了近年来刺激响应性聚合物在传感与驱动相关领域的最新研究进展。
摘要：Stimuli-responsive polymers (SRPs) are capable of changing their solubility, conformation, and volume in response to external stimuli. Understanding the nature of the responsivity and the synthetic challenges, new SRP can be synthesized with enhanced responsivities at scales that will allow their use in the real world. In this review, many fundamental concepts and recent advances in SRPs for sensing and actuation are presented. A variety of sensors that can respond to physiologically relevant species are reviewed, including temperature/pH, proteins, glucose and ions. The review also includes examples of the use of SRPs for artificial muscles, soft robots, cell culture, and drug delivery.
