As a novel mobile nanodevice, micro‐nano motors (MNMs) can convert the energy of the surrounding environment into mechanical motion. With this unique ability, they promise revolutionary potential in bio‐applications including precise drug delivery, bio‐sensing, and noninvasive surgery. Yet for pract...
