Hole-initiated melting process of thin films
Chenyu Jin, Hans Riegler
We perform numerical and experimental studies on the melting process of thin films initiated by a small hole. The presence of a non-trivial capillary surface, namely the liquid/air…
Morphological Transitions during Melting of Small Cylindrical Aggregates
Chenyu Jin, Hans Riegler
Most studies on melting under confinement focus only on the solid and liquid melt phases. Despite of its ubiquity, contributions from the capillary interface (liquid / vapor interf…
Sharp Transition between Coalescence and Noncoalescence of Sessile Drops
Stefan Karpitschka, Hans Riegler
Unexpectedly, under certain conditions, sessile drops from different but completely miscible liquids do not always coalesce instantaneously upon contact: the drop bodies remain sep…
Non-coalescence of sessile drops from different but miscible liquids: Hydrodynamic analysis of the twin drop contour as self stabilizing, traveling wave
Stefan Karpitschka, Hans Riegler
Capillarity always favors drop fusion. Nevertheless sessile drops from different but completely miscible liquids often do not fuse instantaneously upon contact. Rather, intermediat…
Physics of Spin Casting Dilute Solutions
Stefan Karpitschka, Constans M. Weber, Hans Riegler
We analyze the evolution of the vertical composition profile during hydrodynamic-evaporative film thinning as it typically occurs during spin casting mixtures of non-volatile solut…
Surface nanobubbles: Seeing is believing
Stefan Karpitschka, Erik Dietrich, James R. T. Seddon +3
The existence of surface nanobubbles has been previously suggested using various experimental techniques, including attenuated total reflection spectroscopy, quartz crystal microba…
