Liquid metals (LMs) in an alkaline electrolyte, when placed on a graphite surface, are able to be manipulated into desired flat, stable shapes with sharp angles, like triangles. Unique transformations and worm-like anti-gravity upslope LM locomotion under a low-voltage electric field are also revealed.
液态金属(LMs)在碱性电解质中,放置在石墨表面上时,可以被操纵成具有尖锐角度的所需的平坦、稳定的形状,如三角形。还揭示了在低电压电场下独特的转变和类似蠕虫的反重力上坡 LM 运动。
