This 2-D nanosheet expands like a Grow Monster

Engineers discovered that tiny crystal lattices called ‘self-assembling molecular nanosheets’ expand when exposed to light. The advancement could form the backbone of new light-powered actuators, oscillators and other microscopic electronic components useful in the development of artificial muscles and other soft robotic systems.
