Abstract:Developing stimuli-responsive nanochannels for tunable mass transport has attracted considerable attention. Herein, we investigate the electromechanical actuation of Sc2C MXene nanotubes (MNTs) that can be rolled from planar Sc2C and the application of the electromechanically actuated MNTs for tunable mass transport. Our results demonstrate that the maximum radial actuation strain is as high as 26.8% for MNTs upon charge injection while maintaining sufficient structural integrity. The underlying mechanism behind this high actuation performance of MNTs and planar Sc2C is revealed by...
