Journal ArticleDOI
Polymer artificial muscles
TL;DR: The various types of natural muscle are incredible material systems that enable the production of large deformations by repetitive molecular motions as mentioned in this paper. But they are difficult to manipulate and require a large amount of energy.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that an electrolyte-filled twist-spun carbon nanotube yarn, much thinner than a human hair, functions as a torsional artificial muscle in a simple three-electrode electrochemical system, providing a reversible 15,000° rotation and 590 revolutions per minute.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advanced asymmetrical supercapacitors based on graphene hybrid materials
