Active rotational dynamics of a self-diffusiophoretic colloidal motor

Shang Yik Reigh, Mu-Jie Huang, Hartmut Löwen +2

The dynamics of a spherical chemically-powered synthetic colloidal motor that operates by a self-diffusiophoretic mechanism and has a catalytic domain of arbitrary shape is studied…

Diffusiophoretically induced interactions between chemically active and inert particles

Shang Yik Reigh, Prabha Chuphal, Snigdha Thakur +1

In the presence of a chemically active particle, a nearby chemically inert particle can respond to a concentration gradient and move by diffusiophoresis. The nature of the motion i…

Autophoretic motion in three dimensions

Maciej Lisicki, Shang Yik Reigh, Eric Lauga

Janus particles with the ability to move phoretically in self-generated chemical concentration gradients are model systems for active matter. Their motion typically consists of str…

Two-fluid model for locomotion under self-confinement

Shang Yik Reigh, Eric Lauga

The bacterium Helicobacter pylori causes ulcers in the stomach of humans by invading mucus layers protecting epithelial cells. It does so by chemically changing the rheological pro…

Swimming with a cage: Low-Reynolds-number locomotion inside a droplet

Shang Yik Reigh, Lailai Zhu, François Gallaire +1

Inspired by recent experiments using synthetic microswimmers to manipulate droplets, we investigate the low-Reynolds-number locomotion of a model swimmer (a spherical squirmer) enc…
