Dynamic curvature control of rolled-up metal nanomembranes activated by magnesium

Abstract

Dynamic curvature control of rolled-up metal nanomembranes using an active magnesium layer design is implemented in bio-oriented conditions to realize shape transformation of expansion, shrinking, un-rolling and re-rolling. The tube integrated with a catalytic Pt layer is proposed for a new type of smart drug delivery microsystem.
