The Chinese Academy of Sciences is applying the art of Kirigami to the science of nano-scale manufacturing. The Academy’s researchers use a focused ion beam to cut a precise pattern in a free-standing gold nanofilm, then use the same beam to pull the nanopattern into a 3D shape. The pulling forces were induced by heterogeneous ...
