Research output: Contribution to journal › Short survey › peer-review

Abstract

Synthetic active matter is changing the way we think about and engineer new functional materials. In a recent work published in Nature Nanotechnology, Tang and coworkers engineered an army of microswimmers that mimic the collective phototactic behavior of algae in solution.
