The micro/nanomotors are nanometer or micrometer-sized devices which can be activated by chemical reactions or external physical energy sources (light energy, sound energy, electric energy, magnetic energy etc.). The activated micro/nanomotors display rotation, rolling, shuttling, delivery, contraction, or collective behavior. The device has the advantages of small volume, good controllability, simple preparation and so on, and has shown good application prospects in many fields such as self-assembly of nano-particles, degradation of polymers, drug transport and water pollution control. The aggregation and dispersion of micro-nanomotors is a very important group behavior of motor. When aggregated, the efficiency of motors can be greatly improved. In dispersed state, they can also become independent individuals, and exercise their own missions. This article will outline the important research progress and the latest research results of micro-nano motors in gathering and dispersing behavior in recent years, and give a detailed description of the conversion process and its mechanism under different stimuli, which can provide some reference for the in-depth study of micro-nano motor dynamic behavior.
