Particle-laden interfaces are ubiquitous nowadays. The understanding of their properties
and structure is essential for solving different problems of technological and industrial …

Ratchet transport systems are widespread in physics and biology; however, the effect of the
dispersing medium in the collective dynamics of these out-of-equilibrium systems has been …

We study both experimentally and theoretically the dynamics of chemically self-propelled
Janus colloids moving atop a two-dimensional crystalline surface. The surface is a …

The transport of confined micron‐sized particles plays an important role in a range of
phenomena in biology, colloidal science, and solid‐state physics. Here, an easily …

The simultaneous separational control of motion of individual objects is vital to achieve high
efficiency separation for biological analytes in biomedical applications. Here, we show the …

Using simulations we examine a two-dimensional disk system in which two disk species are
driven in opposite directions. We measure the average velocity of one of the species versus …

With its momentum transfer, light is a primary tool for manipulating microscale objects in
various research fields, including physics, chemistry, and biology. Optical force fields, also …

We reveal the assembly of magnetite nanoparticles of sizes 5 nm, 15 nm and 25 nm from
dilute water-based ferrofluids onto an amorphous magnetic template with out-of-plane …

A colloidal particle is driven across a temporally oscillating one-dimensional optical potential
energy landscape and its particle motion is analysed. Different modes of dynamic mode …

The manipulation of superparamagnetic microbeads for lab-on-a-chip applications relies on
the steering of microbeads across an altering stray field landscape on top of soft magnetic …
