Intelligent Cobweb Structures for All‐In‐One Flexible Devices via Laser Thermal Printing

Abstract A novel laser thermal printing technique toward the fabrication of all‐in‐one flexible intelligent devices is presented in this work, addressing the existing challenges in their scalable manufacturing and multifunctional performance. The first‐ever application of this technique for the synthesis of a multifunctional intelligent cobweb structure is presented. The resultant cobweb integrates a conductive network of multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and NdFeB magnetic microparticles within a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix, enabling seamless incorporation of sensing, stimulus response, and actuation functionalities. The cobweb exhibits multifunctional sensing characteristics, including a 2.37 strain gauge factor and a 0.312%·mT −1 magnetic field sensitivity, excellent stability exceeding 3500 cycles. Furthermore, the cobweb achieves accurate capture of a beetle on the basis of real‐time sensing of the beetle, verifying its rapid stimulus response characteristics. Meanwhile, the cobweb exhibits an electromagnetic ejection performance with an ejection height of over 33.5 times the size of the projectile, verifying its powerful actuating ability. These results demonstrate the successful integration of multifunctional sensing, stimulus response, and actuation within the cobweb structure, facilitated by the innovative laser thermal printing process. The laser thermal printing technique marks a significant advancement in the efficient fabrication of miniaturized and multifunctional flexible intelligent devices based on thermosetting materials.
