Supplemental material

The supplementary information includes details of experimental setup, contact angle measurement, profilometry analysis, determination of pitch of the remora disc pattern from experimental data, vortical flow corresponding to the Marangoni convection, 3D profile of the remora disc assembly at different lifting speeds, determination of the number of particles deposited at the center and edge pattern of the remora disc assembly and curve fitting, UV-Vis absorption spectrum of gold nanoparticle, and Scanning electron microscopy image. It also contains a table depicting the variation in the heights of the center and edge patterns of remora disc assembly at different lifting speeds.
