Symmetrical Catalytic Colloids Display Janus‐Like Active Brownian Particle Motion [PDF]
Advanced Science, 2023 Catalytic Janus colloids, with one hemi‐sphere covered by a hydrogen peroxide reduction catalyst such as platinum, represent one of the most experimentally explored examples of self‐motile active colloid systems. This paper comparatively investigates the

Interactions in active colloids [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2021 Abstract The past two decades have seen a remarkable progress in the development of synthetic colloidal agents which are capable of creating directed motion in an unbiased environment at the microscale. These self-propelling particles are often praised for their enormous potential to self-organize into dynamic nonequilibrium structures ...

Review: Interactions of Active Colloids with Passive Tracers
Condensed Matter, 2019 Collective phenomena existing universally in both biological systems and artificial active matter are increasingly attracting interest. The interactions can be grouped into active-active and active-passive ones, where the reports on the purely active ...

How to steer active colloids up a vertical wall [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsAn important challenge in active matter lies in harnessing useful global work from entities that produce work locally, e.g., via self-propulsion. We investigate here the active matter version of a classical capillary rise effect, by considering a non ...

Active colloidal molecules in activity gradients [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2022 We consider a rigid assembly of two active Brownian particles, forming an active colloidal dimer, in a gradient of activity. We show analytically that depending on the relative orientation of the two particles the active dimer accumulates in regions of either high or low activity, corresponding to, respectively, chemotaxis and antichemotaxis.
