Abstract

Silver chloride has the inherent ability to transform light energy into surface chemical reactions. Here, this property is used to achieve self-propulsion of octapod-shaped AgCl particles. The top view SEM image shows several of the particles and the inset shows a schematic illustrating the propulsion. For the characterization of motion, the dynamics of single particles are analyzed, and then applications of light-driven particles are presented. More information can be found in the Full Paper by J. Simmchen et al. on page 65 in Issue 1, 2017 (DOI:10.1002/cnma.201600300).
