Artificial systems that mimic such processes can provide a well-controlled setting to explore the principles involved and also synthesize useful micromachines. Our experiments show that immotile, but active, components self-assemble into two types of structure that exhibit the fundamental forms of motility: translation and rotation. Specifically, micron-scale metallic rods are designed to induce extensile surface flows in the presence of a chemical fuel; these rods interact with each other and pair up to form either a swimmer or a rotor. Such pairs can transition reversibly between these two configurations, leading to kinetics reminiscent of bacterial run-and-tumble motion."}],"publication_status":"published","publication":"Soft Matter","_id":"9051","doi":"10.1039/c5sm03127c","author":[{"first_name":"Megan S.","full_name":"Davies Wykes, Megan S.","last_name":"Davies Wykes"},{"id":"8fb92548-2b22-11eb-b7c1-a3f0d08d7c7d","last_name":"Palacci","orcid":"0000-0002-7253-9465","full_name":"Palacci, Jérémie A","first_name":"Jérémie A"},{"full_name":"Adachi, Takuji","first_name":"Takuji","last_name":"Adachi"},{"first_name":"Leif","full_name":"Ristroph, Leif","last_name":"Ristroph"},{"last_name":"Zhong","full_name":"Zhong, Xiao","first_name":"Xiao"},{"last_name":"Ward","first_name":"Michael D.","full_name":"Ward, Michael D."},{"last_name":"Zhang","full_name":"Zhang, Jun","first_name":"Jun"},{"full_name":"Shelley, Michael J.","first_name":"Michael J.","last_name":"Shelley"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1744-6848"],"issn":["1744-683X"]},"extern":"1","type":"journal_article","date_updated":"2023-02-23T13:47:38Z","volume":12,"date_published":"2016-05-28T00:00:00Z","day":"28","article_type":"original","year":"2016","publisher":"Royal Society of Chemistry","pmid":1,"oa_version":"Preprint","issue":"20","scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","title":"Dynamic self-assembly of microscale rotors and swimmers","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1509.06330","open_access":"1"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"intvolume":" 12"}
