a The diagram and (b) demonstration of releasing an object via NIR light responsive LMPCs. The scale bar corresponds to 10 mm (c) The diagram and (d) demonstration of gripping and releasing an object via using NIR light controlled LMPCs. The scale bar corresponds to 10 mm (e) The diagram and (f) demonstration of the rotated structure (state B) transforms into the original shape (state A) upon NIR exposure. The scale bar corresponds to 5 mm.
