3D Propulsions of Rod‐Shaped Micropropellers

Untethered, magnetically driven microrobots have great potential in practical applications such as minimally invasive surgery. Microrods, also known as “nanowires,” are the most commonly used type of structure for microrobots due to the easy fabrication and promising functions. Driven by a uniform r...

3D Propulsions of Rod‐Shaped Micropropellers
description Untethered, magnetically driven microrobots have great potential in practical applications such as minimally invasive surgery. Microrods, also known as “nanowires,” are the most commonly used type of structure for microrobots due to the easy fabrication and promising functions. Driven by a uniform rotating magnetic field, microrods can perform a 2D movement with the assistance of a boundary surface, which severely limits the application of microrods in 3D spaces. Herein, an asymmetric structural design is proposed to construct rod‐shaped micropropellers that can achieve a surface‐free 3D propulsion. A theoretical model is formulated based on resistive force theory to investigate the dynamics of micropropellers. It is theoretically demonstrated and experimentally verified that the magnetic micropropeller can realize not only a 3D propulsion, but also multimodal locomotion to adapt to the environment. The work provides guidance for the design and optimization of autonomous micropropellers.
