Abstract
Supplementary material (further details of the stability of LCIPS against water-induced dewetting, the interfacial tension and contact angle measurement using a goniometer, the estimation of the thickness of LC wrapping layer at air-water interface on droplets, SEM measurements, the average sliding velocity of a water droplet on 5CB, E7, silicone oil, and mineral oil films with and without a magnetic field, representative force diagram (Fd versus time) of a 3-µL water droplet moving at a speed of 0.1 mm/s on a nematic 8CB film, Fdynamic acting on 3 µL water droplets moving at speeds of 0.1-1 mm/s on an isotropic 8CB film, the calculated magnetic coherence length as a function of the magnitude of the magnetic field applied to the nematic LCIPS, and the apparent advancing and receding contact angles of a moving water droplet on nematic LCIPS as a function of time, and polarized light micrographs (top view) of a nematic 8CB film between two DMOAP-functionalized glass slides before and after applying a horizontal magnetic field) is available in the online version of this article at 10.1007/s12274-022-5318-y.
