Mechanisms in Slide Electrification of Liquid and Frozen Drops on Hydrophobic Surfaces
Rutvik Lathia, Benjamin Leibauer, Aaron D. Ratschow +2
The microscopic and fundamental origin of slide electrification, where droplets of water move across insulating surfaces accumulating and depositing electrical charges, is still de…
How Spontaneous Electrowetting and Surface Charge affect Drop Motion
Chirag Hinduja, Benjamin Leibauer, Rishi Chaurasia +5
Water drops sliding on hydrophobic surfaces spontaneously separate charges at their rear. It is unclear how this charge separation affects the contact angles of a sliding drop. We…
Convection can enhance the capacitive charging of porous electrodes
Aaron D. Ratschow, Alexander J. Wagner, Mathijs Janssen +1
Charge transport in porous electrodes is foundational for modern energy storage technologies like supercapacitors, fuel cells, and batteries. Supercapacitors in particular rely sol…
Spontaneous Coulomb fissions of drops on lubricated surfaces
Marcus Lin, Peng Zhang, Aaron D. Ratschow +3
Charged water drops are more widespread than commonly acknowledged. For example, raindrops typically carry charges of order Q ~ 1 pC, while routine pipetting in the laboratory prod…
Contact line friction of bubbles
Xicheng Bao, Aaron D. Ratschow, Xiaoteng Zhou +9
Contact line friction (CLF) of bubbles is ubiquitous, from bubbles on a beer glass to H2 bubbles sliding over electrodes in electrolysis. However, a fundamental understanding of CL…
Bipolar surface charging by evaporating water droplets
Nitish Singh, Aaron D. Ratschow, Nabeel Aslam +1
Surface charging is a ubiquitous phenomenon with important consequences. On one hand, surface charging underpins emerging technologies such as triboelectric nanogenerators; on the…
