Rotation of Liquid Metal Droplets Solely Driven by the Action of Magnetic Fields

Rotation of Liquid Metal Droplets Solely Driven by the Action of Magnetic Fields

The self-rotation of liquid metal droplets (LMDs) has garnered potential for numerous applications, such as chip cooling, fluid mixture, and robotics. However, the controllable self-rotation of LMDs utilizing magnetic fields is still underexplored. Here, we report a novel method to induce self-rotat...
