“…Rolled-up nanotechnology has become a versatile method for fabricating size-controlled tubular micromotors [69,72]. The researchers can control the length and thickness of the tubular motor by controlling the shape of the sacrificial layer and can also control the material type and composition order of the tubular motor by adjusting the number of thin film layers, the material type, and the order of each layer [66,73]. This technique can batch manufacture tubular micromotors, which has great advantages in material composition and structural design.…”

Due to their tiny size, autonomous motion and functionalize modifications, micro/nanomotors have shown great potential for environmental remediation, biomedicine and micro/nano-engineering. One-dimensional (1D) micro/nanomotors combine the characteristics of anisotropy and large aspect ratio of 1D materials with the advantages of functionalization and autonomous motion of micro/nanomotors for revolutionary applications. In this review, we discuss current research progress on 1D micro/nanomotors, including the fabrication methods, driving mechanisms, and recent advances in environmental remediation and biomedical applications, as well as discuss current challenges and possible solutions. With continuous attention and innovation, the advancement of 1D micro/nanomotors will pave the way for the continued development of the micro/nanomotor field.
