Smartphone-based Janus micromotors strategy for motion-based detection of glutathione [PDF]
Herein, we describe a Janus micromotor smartphone platform for the motion-based detection of glutathione. The system compromises a universal three-dimensional (3D)-printed platform to hold a commercial smartphone, which is equipped with an external ...

Impact of surface charge on the motion of light-activated Janus micromotors [PDF]
Abstract Control over micromotors’ motion is of high relevance for lab-on-a-chip and biomedical engineering, wherein such particles encounter complex microenvironments. Here, we introduce an efficient way to influence Janus micromotors’ direction of motion and speed by modifying their surface properties and those of ...

Self-propelled predator-prey of swarming Janus micromotors
It is a long-standing challenge to accomplish bionic microrobot that acts in a similar way of white blood cell, chasing bacteria in complex environment. Without an effective external control field, most swarming microrobots systems are usually unable to perform directional movement and redirect their motion to capture the target.
