Nano and micro architectures for self-propelled motors
Self-propelled micromotors are emerging as important tools that help us understand the fundamentals of motion at the microscale and the nanoscale. Development of the motors for various biomedical and environmental applications is being pursued. Multiple fabrication methods can be used to construct the geometries of different sizes of motors. Here, we present an overview of appropriate methods o...
متن کاملTitanium Dioxide Micro and Nano Architectures
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) micro and nano architectures have been intensively studied in 15 the past years because of many varied applications in environmental, energy conversion, and 16 storage fields, such as heterogeneous catalysis, dye-sensitized solar cells, lithium/sodium ion 17 batteries, lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries, and bio-nanotechnology, etc. Especially the surface and 18 interface s...
متن کاملSwimming upstream: self-propelled nanodimer motors in a flow†
The dynamics of chemically-powered self-propelled nanodimer motors in a fluid flow are investigated. The dimer motors are confined to move in a square channel within which a Poiseuille-like fluid flow exists. The flow direction is opposite to that of the nanomotor’s directed motion. Simulations of the dynamics are carried out using mesoscopic hybrid molecular dynamics/multiparticle collision dy...
متن کاملCollective dynamics of self-propelled sphere-dimer motors.
The collective dynamics of ensembles of chemically powered sphere dimer motors is investigated. Sphere dimers are self-propelled nanomotors built from linked catalytic and noncatalytic spheres. They consume fuel in the environment and utilize the resulting self-generated concentration gradients to produce directed motion along their internuclear axes. In collections of such motors, the individu...
متن کاملPhonon Spectrum Engineering in Rolled-up Micro- and Nano-Architectures
We report on a possibility of efficient engineering of the acoustic phonon energy spectrum in multishell tubular structures produced by a novel high-tech method of self-organization of microand nano-architectures. The strain-driven roll-up procedure paved the way for novel classes of metamaterials such as single semiconductor radial microand nano-crystals and multi-layer spiral microand nano-su...
