A Light‐Activated Polymer Composite Enables On‐Demand Photocontrolled Motion: Transportation at the Liquid/Air Interface
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Swimmers at liquid/air interfaces have drawn enormous attention because of their potential applications. Described herein is one novel light-driven swimmer based on a bimorph composite structure of a photoresponsive liquid-crystalline polymer network and a commercially available polyimide (Kapton). The motion of the swimmer can be controlled by photoirradiation. The bilayer-structured film shows quickly photoinduced bending towards the Kapton side upon exposure to UV light, and recovers immediately after removal of light. When placed on a liquid surface, the swimmer propels itself continually though rhythmic beating the liquid like a dolphin moving forward with its tail fin. Besides, light-powered rotation of the swimmer is successfully achieved by simply changing the length-width ratio and the irradiation site, mimicking the function of a dolphin's pectoral fin. Combining the forward movement and rotation motion together, on-demand directional control of the photo-driven swimmer can be readily obtained at room temperature, showing promise for miniaturized units for transportation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
