“…To this end, many methods have been explored, for example heterogeneous surface chemistries for different patterns [7][8][9], temperature and electric potential gradients [2,6], and surface topography [10][11][12][13][14]. Other techniques for moving nanoscale objects are based on electrical current [15][16][17][18], charge [19][20][21], thermal energy (selective heating) [22][23][24], simple stretch [25], and complicated chemical reactions (e.g. in biological processes) [26].…”

“…The possibility to drive directional motion of adsorbates by means of thermal gradients is interesting and has been explored both theoretically (2) and experimentally (3). By a similar principle, the controlled directional motion on graphene was also explored by means of strain or wettability gradients (4)(5)(6). Carbon systems such as graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are prime candidate substrates (2,3,(7)(8)(9)(10)(11) for these phoretic phenomena, owing to their remarkable mechanical strength and thermal conductivity.…”

“…Recently, strain engineering has been widely studied experimentally and theoretically for tuning material properties. , Externally applied strain to the substrate was experimentally adopted to actuate the migration of fibroblasts in the direction of principal strain, and the rolling motion of biological organisms, such as zoosperms, was driven by the strain gradient induced by muscle contraction. , Not limited to biological systems, as one of the effective strategies, the strain-gradient-based method has been realized in nanosystems, including transport of 2D nanoflakes on graphene. , To the best of our knowledge, no explicit study has been reported on manipulating the motion of water nanodroplets in a more controllable way through deforming substrates.…”
