With this liquid metal, it is possible to make a real version of the Terminator

I believe that everyone has an impression on the "T-1000" liquid metal machine in the film "Terminator 2" that can be transformed. The liquid metal robot has long been more than a concept in reality. Although it looks like a fantasy, it is not Outside scientists have been working hard in this direction.

According to foreign media reports, the research team of RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, extracted a special conductive material from a non-toxic metallic ruthenium alloy, which can be automatically deformed. The university’s researchers are trying to use this conductive liquid metal to make electrons. element.

It is well-known that a metal crucible will be in a liquid state at room temperature. If it is mixed with metals such as indium and tin and added to water to change the pH, the mixed material can magically move freely.

The director of the project, Kourosh Kalantar-zadeh, said: "Using these findings, we can create autonomous mobile objects, switches or pumps that are driven by a combination of surrounding fluids to self-assemble. Liquid metal."

Current electronic devices are circuits based on solid-state components. Electronic components using this material can completely overturn traditional electronic devices and move and reconfigure them as needed.

Of course, not only these application scenarios, but also through the similar principles, can also create a 3D liquid metal robot in the future, just like the T-1000 liquid “terminator”.

In March last year, the Joint Research Group of the Institute of Physical and Chemical Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the School of Medicine of Tsinghua University also published a research paper on deformable liquid metal machines in overseas academic journals. The paper showed that liquid metal can be used after ingesting small amounts of substances. The deformed machine shape moves at a high speed for a long time, achieving autonomous movement without external power.
