From Sarracenia to scientific application: harnessing the potential of porous bionic cones for accelerated directional movement of droplets

Directional droplet transport with high speed is essential for improving the performance of passive fog harvesting, oil–water separation, and phase-change heat transfer systems. However, the transport velocity of droplets driven by conventional mechanisms, such as surface energy gradients and non-equilibrium Laplace pr...
