Unidirectional rotation of micromotors on water powered by pH-controlled disassembly of chiral molecular crystals
Abstract Biological and synthetic molecular motors, fueled by various physical and chemical means, can perform asymmetric linear and rotary motions that are inherently related to their asymmetric shapes. Here, we describe silver-organic micro-complexes of random shapes that exhibit macroscopic unidi...
