Synergistic Strategy of the Freeze–Thaw Process with Prestretching and Metal Ion Cross-Linking to Access Biotissue-Inspired Mechanically Robust Hydrogels with Anisotropic Hierarchy
) compared to the isotropic hydrogel-based device. By mimicking the highly integrated structural composition of biological tissues, our approach offers a pathway toward advanced bioinspired materials for next-generation soft electronics, binary computation, and integrated energy storage systems.
