Capillarity in Interfacial Liquids and Marbles: Mechanisms, Properties, and Applications [PDF]
MoleculesThe mechanics of capillary force in biological systems have critical roles in the formation of the intra- and inter-cellular structures, which may mediate the organization, morphogenesis, and homeostasis of biomolecular condensates.

Capillary origami: superhydrophobic ribbon surfaces and liquid marbles [PDF]
Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2011 In the wetting of a solid by a liquid it is often assumed that the substrate is rigid. However, for an elastic substrate the rigidity depends on the cube of its thickness and so reduces rapidly as the substrate becomes thinner as it approaches becoming a

Electroluminescent Liquid Metal Marbles for Reconfigurable Multi‐Color Display [PDF]
Advanced ScienceConventional display technologies rely on rigid architectures, limiting their adaptability for reconfigurable systems. Plasma discharge, as a field‐driven excitation method, offers great opportunities for visual interfaces, yet integrating it into ...

Liquid Marbles in Liquid [PDF]
Small, 2020 AbstractTraditional liquid marbles (LMs), liquid droplets encapsulated by hydrophobic particles at the liquid–gas interface, are restricted by their short lifetime and low heat transfer efficiency. Herein, a new paradigm for LMs immersed in various liquid mediums with massive enhanced heat transfer and spatial recognition is designed; without ...

Liquid Marble Photosensor [PDF]
ChemPhysChem, 2019 AbstractA liquid marble is a liquid droplet coated by a hydrophobic powder. The liquid marble does not wet adjacent surfaces and therefore can be manipulated as a dry soft body. A Belousov‐Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction is an oscillatory chemical reaction exhibiting waves of oxidation. We demonstrate how to make a photo‐sensor from BZ medium liquid marbles.
