Thermophoresis of Aerosol Spheroids [PDF]

open access: yesAerosol Science and Technology, 2004
An analytical study is presented for the thermophoretic motion of a freely suspended aerosol spheroid in a uniform prescribed temperature gradient that is oriented arbitrarily with respect to its axis of revolution. The Knudsen number is assumed to be small so that the fluid flow is described by a continuum model with a thermal slip at the particle ...

Active Motion of Janus Particle by Self-thermophoresis in Defocused Laser Beam

open access: yes, 2010
We study self-propulsion of a half-metal coated colloidal particle under laser irradiation. The motion is caused by self-thermophoresis: i.e. absorption of laser at the metal-coated side of the particle creates local temperature gradient which in turn ...

Transport of fullerene molecules along graphene nanoribbons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study the motion of C60 fullerene molecules (buckyballs) and short-length carbon nanotubes on graphene nanoribbons. We demonstrate that the nanoribbon edge creates an effective potential that keeps the carbon structures on the surface.

Drug‐Free Thrombolysis Mediated by Physically Activated Micro/Nanoparticles

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Overview of particle‐mediated thrombolytic effects (thermal, mechanical, and chemical) and their activating physical stimuli (light, ultrasound, and magnetic field) in drug‐free thrombolysis. ABSTRACT Thrombus‐associated disorders rank among the world's leading causes of death, with ischemic heart disease and stroke as the main contributors.

The role of temperature-induced effects generated by plasmonic nanostructures on particle delivery and manipulation: a review

open access: yesNanophotonics, 2022
Plasmonic optical tweezers that stem from the need to trap and manipulate ever smaller particles using non-invasive optical forces, have made significant contributions to precise particle motion control at the nanoscale. In addition to the optical forces,
