Graphene can be used to create artificial muscles?

Posted by TINC on September 1, 2011 at 5:45pm
Researchers managed to fabricate electrochemical actuators based on flexible graphene paper. These kinds of devices can convert electrical energy into mechanical energy through stretching or contraction, behaving like artificial muscles. This has all sorts of potential applications - in healthcare and nanotechnology...
