Scientists have created origami-style graphene paper that can fold itself away. The breakthrough was made after scientists discovered a method of using heat and infrared light to move a thin graphene ...

Kouko added, “ The Japanese Miura origami pattern we’ve chosen is relatively simple, which makes it potentially suitable for folding many other materials. We have investigated the possibilities of ...

Programmable stiff sheets with a single low-energy folding motion have been sought in fields ranging from the ancient art of origami to modern meta-materials research. Despite such attention, only two ...
