Electrowetting of liquid marbles [PDF]
Electrowetting of water drops on structured superhydrophobic surfaces are known to cause an irreversible change from a slippy (Cassie-Baxter) to sticky (Wenzel) regime. An alternative approach to using a water drop on a super-hydrophobic surface to obtain a non-wetting system is to use a liquid marble on a smooth solid substrate.
