Figure 5. The manipulation of droplets on moisture responsive shape-morphing slippery surface. (a) Schematic illustration for the active and passive manipulation of a droplet containing live tubificidaes using the shape-morphing slippery surface. (b) The photographs of shape-morphing slippery frog tongue. The scale bar is 1.5 cm. (c) A smart water droplet harvesting flower. Every flower petal is made of the shape-morphing slippery surface (oil-LRGO/GO). The scale bar is 1.5 cm. (d) Moisture triggered active approach to water droplets containing live tubificidaes and the passive sliding behavior on the shape-morphing slippery surface. The scale bar is 0.5 cm. (e) The corresponding trajectory of the water droplet peripheries during the dynamic process. (f) The curvature changes of the shape-morphing slippery surface in (d). (g) The open-circuit voltage and (h) short-circuit current.
