Surface Modification of 3D Printed Microfluidic Devices for Controlled Wetting in Two-Phase Flow
Micromachines, 2022 Microfluidic devices (MFDs) printed in 3-D geometry using digital light projection to polymerize monomers often have surfaces that are not as hydrophobic as MFDs made from polydimethylsiloxane.

Directional wetting in anisotropic inverse opals [PDF]
, 2014 Porous materials display interesting transport phenomena due to the restricted motion of fluids within the nano- to micro-scale voids. Here, we investigate how liquid wetting in highly ordered inverse opals is affected by anisotropy in pore geometry.

Statics and Dynamics of Soft Wetting
Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2020 The laws of wetting are well known for drops on rigid surfaces but change dramatically when the substrate is soft and deformable. The combination of wetting and the intricacies of soft polymeric interfaces have provided many rich examples of fluid ...

Wetting by Liquid Metals—Application in Materials Processing: The Contribution of the Grenoble Group
Metals, 2015 The wettability of ceramics by liquid metals is discussed from both the fundamental point of view and the point of view of applications. The role of interfacial reactions (simple dissolution of the solid in the liquid or formation of a layer of a new ...

Surface energetics and structure of the Ge wetting layer on Si(100) [PDF]
, 2004 Ge deposited on Si(100) initially forms heteroepitaxial layers, which grow to a critical thickness of ~3 MLs before the appearance of three-dimensional strain relieving structures.

Nature Communications, 2015 Large-aspect-ratio grains are needed in polycrystalline thin-film solar cells for reduced charge recombination at grain boundaries; however, the grain size in organolead trihalide perovskite (OTP) films is generally limited by the film thickness. Here we

Current Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science, 2011 Abstract Wettability studies of liquids inside nanometre scale channels commenced shortly after the discovery of carbon nanotubes in the early 1990s. Since then the field has progressively expanded to other kinds of nanotubes and nanochannels as they have become available.
