Journal ArticleDOI
Active Particles in Complex and Crowded Environments
Clemens Bechinger,Roberto Di Leonardo,Hartmut Löwen,Charles Reichhardt,Giorgio Volpe,Giovanni Volpe +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a guided tour through the development of artificial self-propelling microparticles and nanoparticles and their application to the study of nonequilibrium phenomena, as well as the open challenges that the field is currently facing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Active Brownian Particles in Complex and Crowded Environments
Clemens Bechinger,Roberto Di Leonardo,Hartmut Löwen,Charles Reichhardt,Giorgio Volpe,Giovanni Volpe +5 more
TL;DR: Active Brownian particles, also referred to as microswimmers and nanoswimmers, are biological or manmade microscopic and nanoscopic particles that can self-propel as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamical clustering and phase separation in suspensions of self-propelled colloidal particles.
Ivo Buttinoni,Ivo Buttinoni,Julian Bialké,Felix Kümmel,Felix Kümmel,Hartmut Löwen,Clemens Bechinger,Clemens Bechinger,Thomas Speck +8 more
TL;DR: A (quasi-)two-dimensional colloidal suspension of self-propelled spherical particles propelled due to diffusiophoresis in a near-critical water-lutidine mixture finds that the driving stabilizes small clusters and undergoes a phase separation into large clusters and a dilute gas phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photoelectrochromic windows and displays
TL;DR: In this article, an electrochromic film and a photovoltaic film form the two electrodes of an electrochemical cell, and the resulting structure exhibits photochromism, but unlike conventional photochromic films, the light absorbing process (in the photovolastic film) is separate from the coloration process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct measurement of critical Casimir forces
Christopher Hertlein,Laurent Helden,Andrea Gambassi,Siegfried Dietrich,Siegfried Dietrich,Clemens Bechinger +5 more
TL;DR: The direct measurement of critical Casimir force is reported between a single colloidal sphere and a flat silica surface immersed in a mixture of water and 2,6-lutidine near its critical point, which may result in novel uses of colloids as model systems.
