Description:
Complex three-dimensional (3D) structures in biology (e.g., cytoskeletal webs, neural circuits, and vasculature networks) form naturally to provide essential functions in even the most basic forms of life. Compelling opportunities exist for analogous 3D architectures in human-made devices, but design options are constrained by existing capabilities in materials growth and assembly. We report routes to previously inaccessible classes of 3D constructs in advanced materials, including device-grade silicon. The schemes involve geometric transformation of 2D micro/nanostructures into extended 3D layouts by compressive buckling. Demonstrations include experimental and theoretical studies of more than 40 representative geometries, from single and multiple helices, toroids, and conical spirals to structures that resemble spherical baskets, cuboid cages, starbursts, flowers, scaffolds, fences, and frameworks, each with single- and/or multiple-level configurations.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Xu, Sheng -- Yan, Zheng -- Jang, Kyung-In -- Huang, Wen -- Fu, Haoran -- Kim, Jeonghyun -- Wei, Zijun -- Flavin, Matthew -- McCracken, Joselle -- Wang, Renhan -- Badea, Adina -- Liu, Yuhao -- Xiao, Dongqing -- Zhou, Guoyan -- Lee, Jungwoo -- Chung, Ha Uk -- Cheng, Huanyu -- Ren, Wen -- Banks, Anthony -- Li, Xiuling -- Paik, Ungyu -- Nuzzo, Ralph G -- Huang, Yonggang -- Zhang, Yihui -- Rogers, John A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2015 Jan 9;347(6218):154-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1260960.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Materials Science and Engineering and Frederick Seitz Materials Research Laboratory, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL 61801, USA. ; Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL 61801, USA. ; Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Department of Mechanical Engineering, Center for Engineering and Health, and Skin Disease Research Center, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208, USA.
