Thermotaxis of Janus particles [PDF]
Abstract The interactions of autonomous microswimmers play an important role for the formation of collective states of motile active matter. We study them in detail for the common microswimmer-design of two-faced Janus spheres with hemispheres made from different materials. Their chemical and physical surface properties

The concept of a miniature all-optical space switch based on the photonic hook effect
We propose and discuss main properties of a new concept of an all-optical dielectric two-channel wavelength-selective switch based on the photonic hook effect. A prototype of such a de-vice based on dielectric microstructures with broken symmetry of both

Janus particles with tunable patch symmetry and their assembly into chiral colloidal clusters
Janus particles, which have an attractive patch on the otherwise repulsive surface, have been commonly employed for anisotropic colloidal assembly. While current methods of particle synthesis allow for control over the patch size, they are generally ...

Janus particles with anisotropic surfaces possess considerable potential for biological functionalization. However, little is known about the effect of surface anisotropy of Janus particles on the shelf life of perishable food.

Active Janus particles in a complex plasma
Active Janus particles suspended in a plasma were studied experimentally. The Janus particles were micron-size plastic microspheres, one half of which was coated with a thin layer of platinum. They were suspended in the plasma sheath of a radio-frequency

Janus particles for oil–water separation have attracted widespread attention in recent years. Herein, we prepared a bowl-shaped Janus particle that could rapidly separate oil and water through a thiol–ene click reaction and selective etching.

Electrophoresis of active Janus particles [PDF]
We theoretically consider the dynamics of a self-propelled active Janus motor moving in an external electric field. The external field can manipulate the route of a Janus particle and force it to move toward the desired targets. To investigate the trajectory of this active motor, we use a perturbative scheme.

On the Elastic Description of a Spherical Janus Particle
The elastic problem of a spherical core-shell particle with a truncated core is solved within the isotropic classical theory of elasticity. A transition to a Janus particle consisting of two unequal spherical segments with lattice mismatch is ...
