Active colloids, that consume energy to move, hold similar potential for man-made materials controlled by forces generated from within. Yet, their use as a powerhouse in materials science lacks. Here we show a massive acceleration of the annealing of a monolayer of passive beads by moderate addition of self-propelled microparticles. We rationalize our observations with a model of collisions that drive active fluctuations and activate the annealing. The experiment is quantitatively compared with Brownian dynamic simulations that further unveil a dynamical transition in the mechanism of annealing. Active dopants travel uniformly in the system or co-localize at the grain boundaries as a result of the persistence of their motion. Our findings uncover the potential of internal activity to control materials and lay the groundwork for the rise of materials science beyond equilibrium."}],"_id":"9060","author":[{"first_name":"Sophie","full_name":"Ramananarivo, Sophie","last_name":"Ramananarivo"},{"full_name":"Ducrot, Etienne","first_name":"Etienne","last_name":"Ducrot"},{"last_name":"Palacci","id":"8fb92548-2b22-11eb-b7c1-a3f0d08d7c7d","full_name":"Palacci, Jérémie A","first_name":"Jérémie A","orcid":"0000-0002-7253-9465"}],"doi":"10.1038/s41467-019-11362-y","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2041-1723"]},"date_updated":"2023-02-23T13:47:59Z","volume":10,"extern":"1","type":"journal_article","has_accepted_license":"1"}
