A "molecular spring" typically refers to a type of molecular structure that can change its shape or conformation in response to external forces or stimuli, effectively storing and releasing energy similar to a mechanical spring. These systems can be of great interest in various fields, including materials science, chemistry, and nanotechnology. In a broader context, molecular springs can be thought of as biological or synthetic molecules that have elastic properties, allowing them to return to their original shape after deformation.
