Light-regulated growth from dynamic swollen substrates for making rough surfaces

Natural organic structures forms via a growth mode unlike synthetic architectures that are constructed through assembly, molding, cutting, and printing. Here the authors show a photoinduced strategy for regulating localized growth of microstructures from the surface of a swollen dynamic substrate.
