How is the mechanism of propulsion?
Rolling mechanism: the Quincke effect

Charge relaxation time

unstable stable
Electric torque
- G. Quincke
=(dielectric constant)/(conductivity) (dielectric) surpass the viscous torque in
start to rotate!
(instantaneous) (viscous torque) (electric torque) induced by the surface charge
steady stable sol.: steady rotation 3/15
Properties of Quincke rollers
➤ relax in 1ms and then constant speed
- typical speed:
- cf. speed of bacteria
⚠ NOT electrophoresis. Always external field ⊥ propelling direction ✓easy preparation ✓easy to control propulsion speed ✓relaxation time to steady state is small
uniformly ramdom in 2D plane
