Self-propulsion of a spherical electric or magnetic microbot in a polar viscous fluid

open access: yes, 2014
The self-propulsion of a sphere immersed in a polar liquid or ferrofluid is studied on the basis of ferrohydrodynamics. In the electrical case an oscillating charge density located inside the sphere generates an electrical field which polarizes the fluid.

4D‐Printed Magneto‐Plasmonic Microrobots for Programmable Spatiotemporal De‐Icing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 4D‐printing strategy is introduced to achieve programmable de‐icing devices. By aligning gold–magnetite nanofillers within a photosensitive resin, the printed structures exhibit dual magnetic and plasmonic functionalities, enabling precise spatio‐temporal ice removal through thermoplasmonic effects.

Optimization of Magnetic Nozzle Configuration and Hybrid Propellant for Radio-Frequency Plasma Micro-Thrusters in Very Low Earth Orbit Applications

open access: yesAerospace
Very low Earth orbit (VLEO) satellites are confronted with the challenge of orbital decay caused by thin atmospheres, and the volume and power limitations of micro satellites further restrict the application of traditional electric propulsion systems. In

Thermo‐Mechanically Recyclable Smart Textiles from Circularly Knitted Liquid Crystal Elastomer Fibers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Reprogrammable multi‐material smart textiles knitted from liquid crystal elastomer fibers undergo 2D and 3D deformation under thermal and photo stimuli. Circularly knitted tubular structures reversibly contract in radial and axial directions, enabling autonomous climbing, liquid release, and micro pumping.
