“…An important benefit of this strategy is that one can easily design the innermost layer by changing the final filtration material. Various tubules having versatile functions in the one-dimensional (1-D) pore space have been synthesized, such as molecular cargos, ,,, virus traps, , E. coli remover, and nanosize reactors. , Self-propelled microtube motors have attracted scientific interest during the past decade. − Many metal-based capillaries containing an internal wall of Pt (or Ag) thin film have been fabricated by rolling-up processing with photolithography ,− or templating synthesis with electrochemical deposition. ,− A disproportionation reaction of H 2 O 2 (H 2 O 2 → H 2 O + 1 / 2 O 2 ) takes place on the Pt surface with subsequent continuous ejection of O 2 bubbles from the terminal opening. As a result, the tube gains thrust in the direction opposite to the bubble discharge.…”
