Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Near-infrared light-stimulated actuations of microgels were investigated for highly functional microactuators in biological applications. Incident light of 830 nm wavelength was coupled to the plasmonic waves on metallic nanostructures buried inside microgels.The microgels exhibited marked deformation, depending on size, shape and layout of the metallic structures. Such plasmonic photothermal conversion was effective for soft microactuators with high controllability.
