Bipolar electrochemical mechanism for the propulsion of catalytic nanomotors in hydrogen peroxide solutions

Bipolar electrochemical mechanism for the propulsion of catalytic nanomotors in hydrogen peroxide solutions

Bimetallic nanorods are propelled in aqueous solutions by the catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water. Several mechanisms (interfacial tension gradients, bubble recoil, viscous Brownian ratchet, self-electrophoresis) have been proposed for the transduction of chemical to mec...
