deswelling changes without any on–off switching of external stimuli, as with heart muscle …

[HTML][HTML] Light and chemical oscillations: Review and perspectives

PL Gentili, JC Micheau - Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology C …, 2020 - Elsevier
When UV–vis radiation interacts with matter, it can play as either a pump, or a developer, or
a signal. In this paper, we show that when UV–vis radiation interacts with very-far-from …

Design of functional polymer gels and their application to biomimetic materials
