Impact of energy dissipation on interface shapes and on rates for dewetting from liquid substrates
Dirk Peschka, Stefan Bommer, Sebastian Jachalski +2
We revisit the fundamental problem of liquid-liquid dewetting and perform a detailed comparison of theoretical predictions based on thin-film models with experimental measurements…
Programmable Active Janus Droplets Driven by Water/Alcohol Phase Separation
Menglin Li, Martin Brinkmann, Ignacio Pagonabarraga +2
We report the existence of self-propelled Janus droplets driven by phase separation, which are able to deliver cargo in a programmable manner. The self-propelling droplets are init…
Effects of slippage on the dewetting of a droplet
Tak Shing Chan, Joshua D. McGraw, Thomas Salez +2
In many macroscopic dynamic wetting problems, it is assumed that the macroscopic interface is quasistatic, and the dissipation appears only in the region close to the contact line.…
Liquid morphologies and capillary forces between three spherical beads
Ciro Semprebon, Mario Scheel, Stephan Herminghaus +2
Equilibrium shapes of coalesced pendular bridges in a static assembly of spherical beads are computed by numerical minimization of the interfacial energy. Our present study focuses…
Collective waves in dense and confined microfluidic droplet arrays
Ulf D. Schiller, Jean-Baptiste Fleury, Ralf Seemann +1
Excitation mechanisms for collective waves in confined dense one-dimensional microfluidic droplet arrays are investigated by experiments and computer simulations. We demonstrate th…
Fast Membranes Hemifusion via Dewetting between Lipid Bilayers
Jose Nabor Vargas, Ralf Seemann, Jean-Baptiste Fleury
The behavior of lipid bilayer is important to understand the functionality of cells like the trafficking of ions between cells. Standard procedures to explore the properties of lip…
