Light-propelled microparticles based on symmetry-broken refractive index profiles
Julian Jeggle, Matthias Rüschenbaum, Adrian Paskert +7
Active colloidal microparticles require reliable actuation to sustain directed motion. Light-based propulsion is particularly attractive as it provides persistent energy supply and…
Extended dynamical density functional theory for nonisothermal binary systems including momentum density
Michael te Vrugt, Hartmut Löwen, Helmut R. Brand +1
In order to describe the nonisothermal dynamics of two-phase flows or binary mixtures such as colloidal suspensions consisting of colloidal particles and solvent on a microscopic l…
Intelligent matter consisting of active particles
Julian Jeggle, Raphael Wittkowski
In this book chapter, we review how systems of simple motile agents can be used as a pathway to intelligent systems. It is a well known result from nature that large groups of enti…
Acoustic neural networks: Identifying design principles and exploring physical feasibility
Ivan Kalthoff, Marcel Rey, Raphael Wittkowski
Wave-guide-based physical systems provide a promising route toward energy-efficient analog computing beyond traditional electronics. Within this landscape, acoustic neural networks…
