Miniaturization effect of electroosmotic self-propulsive microswimmer powered by biofuel cell
Abstract For future medical microrobotics, we have proposed the concept of the electroosmotic self-propulsive microswimmer powered by biofuel cell. According to the derived theoretical model, its self-propulsion velocity is inversely proportional to the length of the microswimmer, while it is propor...
