“…Simulations : The motion of active micromotors characterized by the self‐propelled velocity v as well as passive beads with v = 0 was simulated by numerically integrating the following overdamped Langevin equationsfor i,j running from 1 to the total number N of particles, active and passive, in the system. Here, μ is the mobility of Janus particles, ξ i 0 ( t ) = ( ξ i 0, x ( t ), ξ i 0, y ( t )) is a 2D thermal Gaussian noise with correlation functions 〈ξ 0, α ( t )〉 = 0, 〈ξ 0, α ( t )ξ 0, β ( t )〉 = 2 D T δ αβ δ ( t ), where α,β = x,y , and D T is the translational diffusion constant of a passive particle of the same geometry as an active micromotor, at a fixed temperature; ξ θ ( t ) is an independent 1D Gaussian noise with correlation functions 〈ξ θ ( t )〉 = 0 and 〈 ξ θ ( t ) ξ θ (0)〉 = 2 D R δ( t ) that models the fluctuations of the propulsion angle θ.…”
