A group of physicists from Germany and Sweden collaborated with the first author Jens Christian Grauer of Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (HHU) to study a special colloid The particle system, they activated the system with a laser
According to an old proverb, the whole is often greater than the sum of its parts
The research project involves combining different atoms with larger particles and studying their effects on each other
Specifically, they combined two different types of colloidal particles in a water-lutidine thermal bath
Inside the droplet, the two colloidal particles are heated to different temperatures
The research team combined theory and experimental methods to perform system modeling in Düsseldorf and Darmstadt, while colleagues in Gothenburg verified these findings with real-life experiments, thus confirming the theoretical model
Dr.
Professor Benno Liebchen, head of the "Soft Matter Theory" working group at Darmstadt University of Technology, explained the practical use of droploids: "In addition to proving the new concept of micromotors, droploids and the non-reciprocal interactions involved can be used as future bionics.
