Electrochemistry, although an ancient field of knowledge, has become of paramount
importance in the synthesis of materials at the nanoscale, with great interest not only for …

In the present study, the magnetic field induced self-assembly processes of magnetic
microparticles in an aqueous liquid (the pure magnetic fluid) and nonmagnetic …

State-of-the-art biomedical applications such as targeted drug delivery and laparoscopic
surgery are extremely challenging because of the small length scales, the requirements of …

Sperm cells can move at a high speed in biofluids based on the flexible flagella, which
inspire novel flagellar micro-/nanorobots to be designed. Despite progress in fabricating …

We study a two-dimensional system composed by Active Brownian Particles (ABPs),
focusing on the onset of Motility Induced Phase Separation (MIPS), by means of molecular …

Carnivory in plants is an unusual trait that has arisen multiple times, independently,
throughout evolutionary history. Plants in the genus Genlisea are carnivorous and feed on …

[eng] This thesis will present a body of articles on the research topic of soft matter. Soft
matter is a research subfield of condensed matter, where the energy required for deforming …

The energy conversion efficiency of a micromotor system was quantified. The output of the
micromotor system is the mechanical energy of the revolving and spinning motions of the …
