Abstract

A new construction of a smart carrier particle—a hemicapsule which has an adjustable half-solid–half-hollow structure—is proposed. The transportation of the hemicapsule can be directed by a magnetic field, loading it with substances can be triggered by pH, and the substance release can be activated by either pH or electro-stimulation.
