Microengines: Light‐Induced Motion of Microengines Based on Microarrays of TiO2 Nanotubes (Small 39/2016)
Source abstract
Abstract
On page 5497, M. Guix and co-workers demonstrate a novel light-driven microengine consisting of arrays of self-arranged titanium dioxide nanotubes with a conical inner diameter. Under exposure to UV irradiation, the microengine shows directed motion in solution, both in the presence and absence of hydrogen peroxide, and exhibits cargo capabilities, namely the controlled pick-up, transport and release of microscale particles.
