Inspired by the bionic fish scale surfaces containing micro/nanostructured arrays, herein, the applications of lubricant‐impregnated anisotropic slippery surfaces (LIASSs) using laser ablation of aluminum–magnesium alloys are proposed. Different hydrophobic properties are presented on the LIASSs alo...
