Abstract

Handedness-controlled actuating systems are constructed from continuous twisted fibers with mirrored handedness, superb flexibility and mechanical robustness, affording impressive start-up torques driven by polar solvents, and controllably outputting rotor kinetic energy, harvesting electrical energy, and delivering mechanical energy with a high energy conversion coefficient.
