  1. aBecause of the polymers inside the ionic gel, high temperature may lead to the malfunction of the structure.
  2. bThe remanent magnetization and squareness ratio retain under a range of bending radii, showing the robust characteristic of the structure.
  3. cThe channel resistance is varied ~2% under the bending radius from 20 mm to −30mm.
  4. dThe structure displays the PMA with a concave shape.
  5. eAlthough the OOP hysteresis loops are revealed, the anomalous Hall effect is more emphasized in this study.
  6. fThe MR ratio remains constant when the sample is bent to 3.5 mm.
