These sheets of plastic film may look seemingly innocuous, but increase the temperature around them and they transform into beautiful and elaborate origami models before your very eyes. Developed by ...

Mechanical engineers have devised a technique of 'crystal capillary origami' where salt crystals spontaneously encapsulate liquid droplets. The process offers a new method of nanostructure ...

Using DNA origami, researchers have built a diamond lattice with a periodicity of hundreds of nanometers -- a new approach for manufacturing semiconductors for visible light. Using DNA origami, LMU ...

Princeton engineers are twisting, stretching and creasing structures to create a new type of origami, one that changes its shape and properties in response to changing circumstances. The new method ...

INDIANAPOLIS, March 28, 2023 — The ancient art of origami is well known for transforming sheets of paper and other foldable materials into complex 3D shapes. But now, chemical engineers have extended ...

Researchers at North Carolina State University, led by Michael Dickey, have developed an Origami-like technique that allows them to fold plastic sheets, to pre-specified patterns, by heating the ...
