Abstract

In article number 1803613, Larysa Baraban, Denys Makarov, and co-workers present an experimental and theoretical study of visible light-driven Ag/AgCl Janus micromotors revealing high motility in pure H2O. The propulsion efficiency is dependent on the intensity of visible light and contributed by the coupled effect of the plasmonic light absorption of Ag/AgCl and the efficient photochemical decomposition of AgCl. The application potential of Ag/AgCl micromotors in various physiological solutions and polluting agents is addressed.
