چکیده
Electrospraying also known as an electrohydrodynamic atomization is a technique for atomizing liquids. The origin of electrospraying is on the base of the charged droplets theory which the interface of the droplets could be deformed by the applied electric field on a liquid droplet which egressing a capillary [1]. Electrospray is a well-known phenomenon which has different applications such as fabrication of inorganic nanoparticles, thin films deposition, nanoparticles deposition, aerosolization, fabrication of micro/nano-capsules, etc. [2]. Electrospray could be applied in different status. Two simple systems are illustrated in Figure 1.
