Width distribution of contact lines on a disordered substrate.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have studied the roughness of a contact line on a disordered substrate by measuring its width distribution, which characterizes the roughness completely. The measured distribution is in excellent agreement with the distribution calculated in previous works, extended here to the case of open boundary conditions. This type of analysis, which is performed here on experimental data, provides a strong confirmation that the Joanny-de Gennes model is not sufficient to describe the dynamics of the contact line at the depinning threshold.

An Efficient Technique for Substrate Coupling Parasitic Extraction with Application to RF/Microwave Spiral Inductors (RESEARCH NOTE)
This paper presents an efficient modeling method, based on the microstrip lines theory, for the coupling between a substrate backplane and a device contact. We derive simple closed-form formulas for rapid extraction of substrate parasitics. We use these formulas to model spiral inductors as important substrate-noise sources in mixed-signal systems. The proposed model is verified for the freque...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulation of Al Energetic Nano Cluster Impact (ECI) onto the Surface
On the atomic scale, Molecular Dynamic (MD) Simulation of Nano Al cluster impact on Al (100) substrate surface has been carried out for energies of 1-20 eV/atom to understand quantitatively the interaction mechanisms between the cluster atoms and the substrate atoms. The many body Embedded Atom Method (EAM) was used in this simulation. We investigated the maximum substrate temperature Tmax and...
متن کاملNanoscale Fluid Structure of Liquid-solid-vapour Contact Lines for a Wide Range of Contact Angles
We study the nanoscale behaviour of the density of a simple fluid in the vicinity of an equilibrium contact line for a wide range of Young contact angles θY ∈ [40 ◦, 135◦]. Cuts of the density profile at various positions along the contact line are presented, unravelling the apparent step-wise increase of the film height profile observed in contour plots of the density. The density profile is e...

In this paper we present a detailed theoretical treatment of the 3-D temperature distribution induced by laser beam in photothermal displacement spectroscopy. We assume that a solid sample, which is deposited on a substrate and is in contact with a fluid, is irradiated by an intensity modulated cw laser source. By using a technique based on Greens function and integral transformations we find...
متن کاملMechanics of a liquid drop deposited on a solid substrate
New derivations of Young–Laplace’s and Young’s equations for a liquid drop deposited on a smooth solid substrate are presented, based on an integral form of equilibrium conditions applied to appropriately selected finite portions of the drop. A simple proof for the gravity independence of the contact angle is constructed and compared with a commonly utilized but more involved proof based on the...
