Assembly and speed control in ion exchange based modular phoretic micro-swimmers
Ran Niu, Denis Botin, Julian Weber +2
We report an experimental study on ion-exchange based modular micro-swimmers in low-salt water. Cationic ion-exchange particles and passive cargo particles assemble into self-prope…

Microfluidic Pumping by Micromolar Salt Concentrations
Ran Niu, Patrick Kreissl, Aidan T. Brown +5
An ion-exchange-resin-based microfluidic pump is introduced that utilizes trace amounts of ions to generate fluid flows. We show experimentally that our pump operates in almost dei…
