Electrowetting-Controlled Dropwise Condensation with Patterned Electrodes: Physical Principles, Modeling, and Application Perspectives for Fog Harvesting and Enhanced Heat Transfer
Harmen Hoek, Ranabir Dey, Frieder Mugele
Patterning the wettability of solid surfaces is a successful strategy to control the dropwise condensation of vapor onto partially wetting solid surfaces. We followed the condensat…
Emergence of bimodal motility in active droplets
Babak Vajdi Hokmabad, Ranabir Dey, Maziyar Jalaal +5
To explore and react to their environment, living micro-swimmers have developed sophisticated strategies for locomotion - in particular, motility with multiple gaits. To understand…
Electrically controlled localized charge trapping at amorphous fluoropolymer-electrolyte interfaces
Hao Wu, Ranabir Dey, Igor Siretanu +4
Charge trapping is a long-standing problem in electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD), causing reliability reduction and restricting its practical applications. Although this phenomeno…
Behaviour of flexible superhydrophobic striped surfaces during (electro-)wetting of a sessile drop
Arvind Arun Dev, Ranabir Dey, Frieder Mugele
We study here the microscopic deformations of elastic lamellae constituting a superhydrophobic substrate under different wetting conditions of a sessile droplet using electrowettin…
Soft electrowetting
Ranabir Dey, Mathijs van Gorcum, Frieder Mugele +1
Electrowetting is a commonly used tool to manipulate sessile drops on hydrophobic surfaces. By applying an external voltage over a liquid and a dielectric-coated surface, one achie…
