Geometric tuning of self-propulsion for Janus catalytic particles
(Nature Publishing GroupScientific Reports, 2017-02-13)
Catalytic swimmers have attracted much attention as alternatives to biological systems for examining collective microscopic dynamics and the response to physico-chemical signals. Yet, understanding and predicting even the ...
Phoretic flow induced by asymmetric confinement
(Cambridge University PressJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2016-07-25)
Internal phoretic flows due to the interactions of solid boundaries with local chemical gradients may be created using chemical patterning. Alternatively, we demonstrate here that internal flows might also be induced by ...
