Propulsion Mechanisms in Magnetic Microrobotics: From Single Microrobots to Swarms

open access: yesMicromachines
Microrobots with different structures can exhibit multiple propulsion mechanisms under external magnetic fields. Swarms dynamically assembled by microrobots inherit the advantages of single microrobots, such as degradability and small dimensions, while also offering benefits like scalability and high flexibility.

Magnetic Microrobots with Folate Targeting for Drug Delivery

open access: yesCyborg and Bionic Systems, 2023
Untethered microrobots can be used for cargo delivery (e.g., drug molecules, stem cells, and genes) targeting designated areas. However, it is not enough to just reach the lesion site, as some drugs can only play the best therapeutic effect within the cells.

Selectively controlled magnetic microrobots with opposing helices [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 2020
Magnetic microrobots that swim through liquid media are of interest for minimally invasive medical procedures, bioengineering, and manufacturing. Many of the envisaged applications, such as micromanipulation and targeted cargo delivery, necessitate the use and adequate control of multiple microrobots, which will increase the velocity, robustness, and ...
