Size distribution (histogram) of crystals formed in a Ga-based liquid metal droplet under a fast-cooling, b moderate-cooling, and c slow-cooling conditions. Size distribution (histogram) of crystals formed in a EGaIn-based liquid metal droplet under d fast-cooling, e moderate-cooling, and f slow-cooling conditions. Crystal growth speed distribution presented as a box plot under different liquid metal compositions and cooling rates: g fast-cooling, h moderate-cooling, and i slow-cooling conditions. Data are obtained from a single droplet with each dot representing a single crystal, and the error bars correspond to outliers 1.5× the interquartile range (IQR).
