Hydrodynamic constraints on the energy efficiency of droplet electricity generators
Cui Wang, Jia Zhou, Antoine Riaud +2
Electric energy generation from falling droplets has seen a hundred-fold rise in efficiency over the past year. However, even these newest devices can only extract a small portion…
Printing surface charge as a new paradigm to program droplet transport
Qiangqiang Sun, Dehui Wang, Jiahui Zhang +8
Directed, long-range and self-propelled transport of droplets on solid surfaces, especially on water repellent surfaces, is crucial for many applications from water harvesting to b…
Bioinspired interfacial materials with enhanced drop mobility: From fundamentals to multifunctional applications
Chonglei Hao, Yahua Liu, Xuemei Chen +4
The development of bio-inspired interfacial materials with enhanced drop mobility that mimic the innate functionalities of nature will have significant impact on the energy, enviro…
Symmetry-breaking in drop bouncing on curved surfaces
Yahua Liu, Matthew Andrew, Jing Li +2
The impact of liquid drops on solid surfaces is ubiquitous in nature, and of practical importance in many industrial processes. A drop hitting a flat surface retains a circular sym…
Electrowetting on liquid-infused film (EWOLF): Complete reversibility and controlled droplet oscillation suppression for fast optical imaging
Chonglei Hao, Yahua Liu, Xuemei Chen +4
Electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD) has emerged as a powerful tool to electrically manipulate tiny individual droplets in a controlled manner. Despite tremendous progress over the…
Pancake bouncing on superhydrophobic surfaces
Yahua Liu, Lisa Moevius, Xinpeng Xu +3
Engineering surfaces that promote rapid drop detachment is of importance to a wide range of applications including anti-icing, dropwise condensation6, and self-cleaning. Here we sh…
