The movement of pure water droplets on a superhydrophobic glass surface is precisely controlled through electrostatic manipulation using a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) rod from the opposite side. With just a few seconds of triboelectric charging, the PTFE rod directs droplets, achieving acceleration over 10 000 mm s−2.
