متن کاملSuperhydrophobic Nanowire Surfaces for Drop Movement Using Magnetic Fields
We present a novel method to control water drop movement on superhydrophobic surfaces through magnetic fields. Water drops with paramagnetic particles can be moved on fractal Si-nanowire superhydrophobic surfaces at high speeds by displacing a magnet. A drop pinned to a surface defect can be combined with another drop containing paramagnetic particles thus allowing movement of the newly formed ...
متن کاملDelayed frost growth on jumping-drop superhydrophobic surfaces.
Self-propelled jumping drops are continuously removed from a condensing superhydrophobic surface to enable a micrometric steady-state drop size. Here, we report that subcooled condensate on a chilled superhydrophobic surface are able to repeatedly jump off the surface before heterogeneous ice nucleation occurs. Frost still forms on the superhydrophobic surface due to ice nucleation at neighbori...
متن کاملPancake bouncing on superhydrophobic surfaces
Engineering surfaces that promote rapid drop detachment1,2 is of importance to a wide range of applications including anti-icing3-5, dropwise condensation6, and self-cleaning7-9. Here we show how superhydrophobic surfaces patterned with lattices of submillimetre-scale posts decorated with nano-textures can generate a counter-intuitive bouncing regime: drops spread on impact and then leave the s...
متن کاملRapid deceleration-driven wetting transition during pendant drop deposition on superhydrophobic surfaces.
A hitherto unknown mechanism for wetting transition is reported. When a pendant drop settles upon deposition, there is a virtual "collision" where its center of gravity undergoes rapid deceleration. This induces a high water hammer-type pressure that causes wetting transition. A new phase diagram shows that both large and small droplets can transition to wetted states due to the new deceleratio...
