文摘
- •
Electrotactic, self-propelled droplets composed solely of an IL are reported.
- •
Droplets can be guided across the air-water interface to desired destinations.
- •
Droplet movement is due to electro-stimulated asymmetrical release of surfactant.
- •
Droplet speed and direction can be controlled by switching the impressed voltage.
