Particle motion driven by solute gradients with application to autonomous motion: continuum and colloidal perspectives (2010, background): “…in a biological setting or as a result of chemical reactions occurring asymmetrically on a particle surface as with so-called catalytic nanomotors (Paxton et al. 2004, 2006; Hong et al. 2007; Howse et al. 2007; Abecassis et al. 2008; Ibele, Mallouk & Sen 2009; Kagan et al. 2009; Wang et al.…”
Electrokinetic locomotion due to reaction-induced charge auto-electrophoresis (2010, methodology): “Since the swimming bimetallic rods were introduced to the community by Paxton et al. (2004), they have been engineered to swim at great speeds and perform a variety of tasks.”
Active Particles in Complex and Crowded Environments (2016, background): “…mechanism itself; a classical counter-example to this assumption are bimetallic nanorods driven by electrophoresis in an external electric field (Paxton et al., 2006, 2004), as the external electric field perturbs the transport of ions through the rod and the screening around it, and thus…”
