Polymers cross-linked with dynamic bonds can switch the phase from solid to fluid upon stimulus but return quickly to the solid state once the stimulus is removed. Here the authors report a light triggered permanent solid to fluid transition at room temperature with inherent spatiotemporal control in either direction

The original version of this Article contained errors in Fig. 3. In Fig. 3a, the word ‘fluid’ in grey was incorrectly given as ‘solid’ in green, below that, ‘solid’ in green was previously ‘fluid’ in grey. Also, the label on the arrow incorrectly read ‘TMG (1 mol%) HABI-Cl (3 mol%) 455 nm, 1 min’; the correct version reads ‘TMG (1 mol%) HABI-O-n-oct (4 mol%) 455 nm, 4 min’. In the accompanying legend, the word ‘photobase’ was originally incorrectly given as ‘photoacid’. Additionally, in Fig. 3b, the label on the central image was ‘As is: solid’, rather than the correct ‘As is: fluid’. This has been corrected in both the PDF and HTML versions of the Article.
