Microscale Marangoni Surfers
Kilian Dietrich, Nick Jaensson, Ivo Buttinoni +2
We apply laser light to induce the asymmetric heating of Janus colloids adsorbed at water-oil interfaces and realize active micrometric "Marangoni surfers". The coupling of tempera…
Feedback-Controlled Active Brownian Colloids with Space-Dependent Rotational Dynamics
Miguel Angel Fernandez-Rodriguez, Fabio Grillo, Laura Alvarez +4
The non-thermal nature of self-propelling colloids offers new insights into non-equilibrium physics. The central mathematical model to describe their trajectories is active Brownia…
Rational design and fabrication of versatile active colloidal molecules
Songbo Ni, Emanuele Marini, Ivo Buttinoni +2
Active colloids, also known as artificial microswimmers, are self-propelled micro and nanoparticles that convert uniform sources of fuel (e.g. chemical) or uniform external driving…
