Ultrastrong and fatigue-resistant bioinspired conductive fibers via the in situ biosynthesis of bacterial cellulose

Abstract High-performance functional fibers play a critical role in various indispensable fields, including sensing, monitoring, and display.It is desirable yet challenging to develop conductive fibers with excellent mechanical properties for practical applications.Herein, inspired by the exquisite fascicle structure of skeletal muscle, we construc
