    • Co-Ni-carbon composite fibres for directional magnetic actuation 

      García Torres, José Manuel; Crean, Carol; Vallés, E. (Elsevier, 2018-03-05)
      Article
      Open Access
      Flexible microcomponents are being widely employed in the microelectronic industry; however; they suffer from a lack of complex movement. To address this problem, we have developed flexible, electrically conductive, magnetic ...

    • Design and characterization of a magnetic digital flow regulator 

      Casals Terré, Jasmina; Duch, M.; Plaza, J. A.; Esteve, J; Pérez Castillejos, R.; Vallés, E.; Gómez, E. (2010-07-01)
      Article

      Design, fabrication and testing of a novel micromachined “quasi-digital” microflow regulator for integrated microfluidic systems. Operation relies on the use of a permanent magnet which interacts with an electrodeposited ...

    • Electrochemically synthesized nanostructures for the manipulation of cells: Biohybrid micromotors 

      Serrà, Albert; Vallés, E.; García Torres, José Manuel (2017-12)
      Article
      Open Access
      In this communication we describe the preparation and operation of two types of Ni/Au nanorods (NRs) as new magnetic micromotors for the transport and manipulation of single cells to target specific areas with micron-size ...

    • Magnetic actuation of multifunctional nanorobotic platforms to induce cancer cell death 

      Serrà, Albert; Vázquez Mariño, Gonzalo; García Torres, José Manuel; Bosch, Manel; Vallés, E. (Wiley (John Wiley & Sons), 2018-01-15)
      Article

      Single-bath potentiostatic-pulsed electrodeposition enables the synthesis of bicomponent (i.e., gold and nickel–nickel oxide) multi-segmented magnetic nanowires that, with extraordinarily low cytotoxicity, are ideal ...

    • Magnetic propulsion of recyclable catalytic nano-cleaners for pollutant degradation 

      García Torres, José Manuel; Serrà, Albert; Tierno, Prieto; Alcobé, Xavier; Vallés, E. (2017)
      Article
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      Electrochemically fabricated magnetic mesoporous CoNi@Pt nanorods are excellent nanomotors with controlled magnetic propulsion and excellent catalytic properties. The core–shell structure allows a double functionality: (i) ...
