“…Among them, gold nanoparticles have received extensive attention due to their excellent photothermal characteristics. For example, Yang et al [103] have prepared Page 12 of 19 https://doi.org/10.1007/s40820-019-0350-5 © The authors Au-BP7@SP Janus nanohybrids which show thermophoresis with active motion and enhanced PT effect (Fig. 9a).…”

“…These composites showed thermophoretic motion, but also photothermal effects after NIR irradiation. The Janus nanohybrids had higher cell killer efficacy than Au@SP at the same concentration, probably because the active motion enhances the temperature of the treated cells even further, leading to better results [142]. Xuan et al used the traditional Janus geometry made of mesoporous silica in combination with a Au shell, while the inert half is covered with macrophage cell membranes to increase speed and circulation time, overcome biofouling and enhance target recognition of on cancer cells.…”

Research on nano- and micromotors has evolved into a frequently cited research area with innovative technology envisioned for one of current humanities’ most deadly problems: cancer. The development of cancer targeting drug delivery strategies involving nano-and micromotors has been a vibrant field of study over the past few years. This review aims at categorizing recent significant results, classifying them according to the employed propulsion mechanisms starting from chemically driven micromotors, to field driven and biohybrid approaches. In concluding remarks of section 2, we give an insight into shape changing micromotors that are envisioned to have a significant contribution. Finally, we critically discuss which important aspects still have to be addressed and which challenges still lie ahead of us.

“…Janus NMs are synthesized through an approach based on microfluidics, and therefore loading of the particles with proteins can be realized during synthesis [ 283 ]. Janus NMs can furthermore be filled with nanoparticles e.g., gold nanoaggregates that plays a role in enhancing photothermic tumor therapy [ 284 ]. Transport of NMs can be achieved using chemotaxis as previously considered, pH-taxis or external magnetic guidance [ 285 ].…”

Discovery of bio-inspired, self-propelled and externally-powered nano-/micro-motors, rotors and engines (micromachines) is considered a potentially revolutionary paradigm in nanoscience. Nature knows how to combine different elements together in a fluidic state for intelligent design of nano-/micro-machines, which operate by pumping, stirring, and diffusion of their internal components. Taking inspirations from nature, scientists endeavor to develop the best materials, geometries, and conditions for self-propelled motion, and to better understand their mechanisms of motion and interactions. Today, microfluidic technology offers considerable advantages for the next generation of biomimetic particles, droplets and capsules. This review summarizes recent achievements in the field of nano-/micromotors, and methods of their external control and collective behaviors, which may stimulate new ideas for a broad range of applications.
