a The structure and optical image of the polyaniline composite film (PCF) I (PDMS/Ag NWs/PANi-PNIPAm), with the optical image demonstrating its flexibility. Scale bar: 2 mm. b Architecture of the SPST relay. Optical inputs A indicated in sky blue solid circles, and the electrical output (O1) in orange solid circles, and the input voltage (Vcc) in black solid circles. The input light intensity signals control the formation of an electrical pathway, regulating the output signal. c Operational state of the SPST relay. d The structure and optical image of the PCF II (Ag NWs /PDMS/Ag NWs/PANi-PNIPAm), with the optical image demonstrating its flexibility. Scale bar: 2 mm. e Architecture of the SPDT relay. Optical inputs A are indicated in sky blue solid circles, and the electrical output (O1, O2) are shown in orange solid circles, and the input voltage (Vcc) in black solid circles. f Operational states of the SPDT relay. The BE and TE represent the bottom electrode and top electrode, respectively.
