Topographical pathways guide chemical microswimmers

Self-propelled colloids can be used as cargo carriers, but it is challenging to control their motion without external fields. Here, Simmchen et al. use submicron patterns on a solid substrate to effectively confine the motion of the chemically active Janus microswimmers along the edges of the patter...

Topographical pathways guide chemical microswimmers
description Self-propelled colloids can be used as cargo carriers, but it is challenging to control their motion without external fields. Here, Simmchen et al. use submicron patterns on a solid substrate to effectively confine the motion of the chemically active Janus microswimmers along the edges of the patterns.
