Figure 1. Basic concept of hybrid bionic moisture responsive shape-morphing slippery surface inspired from multi-form carnivorous plants. The Nepenthes pitcher plant catches insects passively with the help of a lubricant-infused slippery surface. The Dionaea muscipula preys actively through a stimuli-responsive actuation mechanism. We combined the slippery surfaces (passive prey) and stimuli-responsive actuation (active prey), so we proposed a hybrid bionic moisture deformable slippery surface-based GO, which enables both active and passive droplet manipulation. GO: graphene oxide; RGO, reduced GO.
