Shaping the gradients driving phoretic micro-swimmers: influence of swimming speed, budget of carbonic acid and environment

ABSTRACT: pH gradient-driven modular micro-swimmers are investigated as a model for a large variety of quasi-two-dimensional chemi-phoretic self-propelled entities. Using three-channel micro-photometry, we obtain a precise large field mapping of pH at a spatial resolution of a few microns and a pH r...
