Abstract

We report the synthesis of a hybrid bilayer, being composed of a free-standing conducting polymer film and a layer of mesoporous metal, encoded with chiral features. The resulting structure constitutes an enantioselective actuator, which can be electrochemically addressed in a wireless way. The controlled discriminatory deformation of the film allows an easy readout of chiral information.
