In this work, we demonstrate how using units with <i>d</i> > 2 levels (qudits) results in a reduction of up to two orders of magnitude in the number of operations (gates) required to implement state-of-the-art algorithms. We explore two conceptually distinct families of these algorithms that were initially designed for qubits and discuss the gate complexity scaling that different platforms (qubit-based <i>vs.</i> qudit-based) offer. Additionally, we present realistic simulations of an experimental platform based on molecular spin qudits coupled to superconducting resonators, where the main hardware error sources are included.

However, the lack of effective remote control and reliance on a single actuation method pose significant challenges, limiting its applications in various fields. This study aims to address these limitations by developing a novel multi-responsive nanocomposite. By coating near-infrared light (NIR)-responsive polypyrrole (PPy) onto the surface of magnetic iron oxide (Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) nanoparticles (NPs), multi-responsive PPy@Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> NPs were synthesized. Doping PPy@Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> into a thermo-responsive shape memory polymer (SMP) matrix created a nanocomposite with excellent NIR and magnetic responsiveness, enabling dynamic, remote-controlled shape transformation of printed objects with precise timing and positioning using NIR and a magnetic field. Using the nanocomposite, a proof-of-concept semi-tubular construct was fabricated to evaluate its controllable transformation capability and assess the potential for modulating neural stem cell (NSC) behaviors. Furthermore, three proof-of-concept smart robots with distinct features were designed and fabricated for cargo delivery in diverse scenarios and different purposes. Importantly, all complex operations of these robots were remotely controlled using NIR illumination and an external magnetic field. This novel approach demonstrates significant progress in addressing the key challenges of remote control and actuation in 4D printing, highlighting its potential for enhanced versatility and functionality across various applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":87,"journal":{"name":"Materials Horizons","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143646769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Carbon-fluorine bonds in the main chains of fluoropolymers impart fluoroplastics with chemical inertness and low surface energy. Achieving effective surface wettability and strong adhesion to fluoroplastics is difficult for adhesive materials because of the lack of cohesion affinity and interfacial interactions. The key to the tough adhesion on fluoroplastics lies in realizing good wettability and high compatibility to surface-fluorinated substrates. Here, a new strategy is developed to address the adhesion challenges to fluoroplastics. The dynamic polymerization and cross-linking of thioctic acid and tetrafluorophthalic acid generate multiple fluorine-fluorine interactions and fluorohydrogen bonds, thus facilitating supramolecular adhesives with strong interfacial interactions to fluoroplastics. The macroscopic bulk state, good mechanical toughness, high cohesion energy density, and rapid self-healing capacity originating from non-covalent assembly provide the necessity for effective and long-term stable adhesion to fluoroplastics.
