Magnetic Field Control of Liquid Crystal-Enabled Colloid Electrophoresis

Microswimmers are key for unveiling new physical phenomena underlying their propulsion, especially when driven inside complex fluids. Liquid crystals are anisotropic complex fluids that feature long-range orientational order. The propulsion of non-charged dielectric particles can be accomplished in...
