Interfacial aggregation of self-propelled Janus colloids in sessile droplets

Maziyar Jalaal, Borge ten Hagen, Hai le The +3

Living microorganisms in confined systems typically experience an affinity to populate boundaries. The reason for such affinity to interfaces can be a combination of their directed…

Evaporation-driven liquid flow in sessile droplets

Hanneke Gelderblom, Christian Diddens, Alvaro Marin

The evaporation of a sessile droplet spontaneously induces an internal capillary liquid flow. The surface-tension driven minimisation of surface area and/or surface-tension differe…

Evaporation of a sessile colloidal water-glycerol droplet: Marangoni ring formation

Lijun Thayyil Raju, Christian Diddens, Yaxing Li +4

The transport and aggregation of particles in suspensions is an important process in many physicochemical and industrial processes. In this work, we study the transport of particle…

Droplet dissolution driven by emerging thermal gradients and Marangoni flow

Binglin Zeng, Yuliang Wang, Christian Diddens +2

The lifetime of an isothermal and purely diffusively dissolving droplet in a host liquid scales as with its initial radius [Langmuir, Phys. Rev. 12, 368 (19…

The asymmetric coalescence of two droplets with different surface tensions is caused by capillary waves

Michiel A. Hack, Patrick Vondeling, Menno Cornelissen +4

When two droplets with different surface tensions collide, the shape evolution of the merging droplets is asymmetric. Using experimental and numerical techniques, we reveal that th…

Time-resolved velocity and pressure field quantification in a flow-focusing device for ultrafast microbubble production

Sarah Cleve, Christian Diddens, Tim Segers +2

Flow-focusing devices have gained great interest in the past decade, due to their capability to produce monodisperse microbubbles for diagnostic and therapeutic medical ultrasound…
