Phoretic self-propulsion at finite P\'eclet numbers [PDF]
, 2014 Phoretic self-propulsion is a unique example of force- and torque-free motion on small scales. The classical framework describing the flow field around a particle swimming by self-diffusiophoresis neglects the advection of the solute field by the flow ...

Electrophoresis of Janus Particles: a Molecular Dynamics simulation study
, 2016 In this work, we use Molecular Dynamics and Lattice-Boltzmann simulations to study the properties of charged Janus particles in an electric field. We show that for relatively small net charge and thick electrostatic diffuse layer mobilities of Janus ...

Screening of heterogeneous surfaces: charge renormalization of Janus particles [PDF]
, 2009 Nonlinear ionic screening theory for heterogeneously charged spheres is developed in terms of a mode-decomposition of the surface charge. A far-field analysis of the resulting electrostatic potential leads to a natural generalization of charge ...

Controllable Assembly and Application of Janus Smart Nanosheets for Oil Displacement
Frontiers in Chemistry, 2020 Based on the development status of low permeability reservoirs, an intelligent nano-flooding agent is needed to improve the displacement efficiency of reservoirs. Janus particles have the characteristics of small size and strong interfacial activity, and

Microsphere Autolithography—A Scalable Approach for Arbitrary Patterning of Dielectric Spheres
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.MicroSphere Autolithography (µSAL) enables scalable fabrication of patchy particles with customizable surface motifs. Focusing light through dielectric microspheres creates well defined, tunable patches via a conformal poly(dopamine) photoresist. Nearly arbitrary surface patterns can be achieved, with the resolution set by the index contrast between ...

Porous Media Microstructure Determines the Diffusion of Active Matter: Experiments and Simulations
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 Active swimmers are known to accumulate along external boundaries owing to their persistent self-motion, resulting in a significant reduction in their effective mobility through heterogeneous and tortuous materials.

Spectrally Tunable 2D Material‐Based Infrared Photodetectors for Intelligent Optoelectronics
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Intelligent optoelectronics through spectral engineering of 2D material‐based infrared photodetectors. Abstract The evolution of intelligent optoelectronic systems is driven by artificial intelligence (AI). However, their practical realization hinges on the ability to dynamically capture and process optical signals across a broad infrared (IR) spectrum.
