About
Xuying Liu is a leading researcher in the development of smart, stimuli-responsive materials for soft robotics and biomechanics. His work centers on liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) and their integration with advanced nanomaterials to create high-performance actuators and sensors. A major contribution is his demonstration that ultralow loadings of carbon nanotubes (0.1 wt%) can enhance LCE tensile strength by over 400%, enabling robust, high-definition photoactuators. He has also pioneered near-infrared light-driven MXene/LCE bimorph membranes with closed-loop self-sensing capabilities, addressing the critical lack of real-time feedback in soft robots. His research on 4D printable LCEs with restricted nanointerfacial slippage has achieved long-term cyclic stability, a key hurdle for practical applications. With over 88 citations for his foundational work on carbon nanotube LCEs and a growing portfolio of highly cited papers (including works on MXene-based piezoresistive sensors), Liu’s innovations are shaping the future of autonomous, self-sensing bionic systems.
