Fig. 5

a, b The variations of the lateral displacement (a) and velocity (b) of an aggregate composed of multiple oil droplets with the polarization angle switching circularly between α = −45° and α = 45°. The insets in (b) show snapshots of different numbers of oil droplets in the linear trap at 156 s and 326 s, respectively. The scale bars in the inset equal 30 µm.
