Superomniphobic Magnetic Microtextures with Remote Wetting Control
Universal remote control of wetting behavior enabling the transition from a superomniphobic to an omniphilic wetting state in an external magnetic field via the alternation of reentrant curvature of a microstructured surface is demonstrated. This reconfigurable microtexture made of Ni micronails repels water, water-surfactant solutions, and practically all organic liquids, whereas it gets wetted by all of these liquids after a magnetic field pulse is applied.
