Regular and Anomalous Motion of Individual Magnetic Quincke Rollers Under Rotating Magnetic Field

Zoran M. Cenev, Ville S. I. Havu, Jaakko V. I. Timonen

We report the motion of individual magnetic Quincke rollers composed of silica particles doped with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles, whose activity arises from the coupl…
