Flagellar dynamics of chains of active Janus particles fueled by an AC electric field

Flagellar dynamics of chains of active Janus particles fueled by an AC electric field

We study the active dynamics of self-propelled asymmetrical colloidal particles (Janus particles) fueled by an AC electric field. Both the speed and direction of the self-propulsion, and the strength of the attractive interaction between particles can be controlled by tuning the frequency of the app...
