abstract = {An external diffusive mass flux is shown to be able to
generate a mechanical torque on a microscale object based on
anisotropic diffusiophoresis. In light of this finding, we
propose a theoretical prototype micro-turbine driven purely
by diffusive mass flux, which is in strong contrast to
conventional turbines driven by convective mass flows. The
rotational velocity of the proposed turbine is determined by
the external concentration gradient, the geometry and the
diffusiophoretic properties of the turbine. This scenario is
validated by performing computer simulations. Our finding
thus provides a new type of chemo-mechanical response which
could be used to exploit existing chemical energies at small
scales.},
