Abstract

In article number 2003678, Xiaolong Lu, Wenjuan Liu, and co-workers report dandelion-like microswarms assembled from tubular micromotors, which are capable of performing ultrafast growth and locomotion. With the ultrasound oscillation of self-generated bubbles, such microswarms could move at an average speed of up to 50 mm s−1 and exhibit an instant and wireless response to ultrasound stimuli.
