Self-propulsion of molecular swimmers
(English) Active matter systems have the ability to exhibit self-propulsion by consuming energy to produce mechanical work, staying out of equilibrium. They occur on a vast range of scales, from herding mammals and flocking birds down to bacteria. Understanding these systems requires the study of the mechanisms that drive the system out of equilibrium ...

A photoactive tweezers system based on photoactive colloids is developed and systematically investigated in this study. Through experimental and theoretical methods, we demonstrate that the photoredox reaction catalyzed by a dye‐sensitized TiO2 particle generates a strong positive phototaxis, enabling self‐entrapment in the beam center.
