这项工作表明，在纳米多孔金的韧带上生长的电致变色聚合物纳米涂层在电化学驱动过程中会导致可逆的尺寸和颜色变化。这种机电和光学特性的结合为人造肌肉的应用开辟了更多的途径，即金属肌肉通过改变可以通过光学手段检测到的颜色来展示其在工作过程中的进步。(C)2013 AIP出版有限责任公司。
This work shows that a nano-coating of electrochromic polymer grown onto the ligaments of nanoporous gold causes reversible dimensional and color changes during electrochemical actuation. This combination of electromechanical and optical properties opens additional avenues for the applications of artificial muscles, i.e., a metallic muscle exhibits its progress during work by changing color that can be detected by optical means.
