Molecules, particles and even cells respond to applied electric fields, exhibiting motion under both DC voltage and high-frequency signals. As a result, electric manipulation holds significant potential for creating reconfigurable motors and diverse swarms. These unique capabilities call for an in-depth investigation of materials' electrical properties under various stimuli, including chemical functionalization, and magnetic, electric, and acoustic fields. Moreover, the discovery of new materials and the creation of hybrid structures with controlled chemistry, dimensions, and assembly could enable distinct mechanical behaviors in response to a given electric frequency, allowing for precise control within a swarm .
