Controlling phoretic swimmer trajectory
Individually propulsive catalytic Janus particle swimmers are observed to self-assemble into aggregate swimmers with a wide variety of translational and rotational velocities. The trajectory for a given doublet is shown to be determined by the frozen in relative orientation of the particles. The new...
