A survey of recent literature on wetting phenomena reveals that there is a fast-growing
interest in wetting of soft or deformable substrates, due to its potential applications in many …

Droplet evaporation on porous materials is a complex dynamic that occurs with spontaneous
liquid imbibition through pores by capillary action. Here, we explore water dynamics on a …

The film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) is a widely-used MEMS device which can be used
as a filter, or as a gravimetric sensor for biochemical or physical sensing. Current device …

Droplet evaporation on soft solid substrates is relevant to applications such as fabrication of
microlenses and controlled particle deposition. Here, we develop a lubrication-theory-based …

The superhydrophobicity of biological surfaces with dual-scale roughness has recently
received considerable attention because of the unique wettability of such surfaces. Based …

Evaporation of water and ethanol/water droplets containing large polystyrene (PS)
microparticles on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) surface was experimentally investigated. It …

This study investigates the evaporation of sessile pure water and nanosuspension drops on
viscoelastic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films. We varied the viscoelasticity of the PDMS …

The present study reports the evaporation dynamics, deposition pattern, effect of magnetic
field and mechanism behind the pinning or depinning of the contact line of sessile ferrofluid …

Evaporation patterns of liquid droplets containing nanoparticles or colloids have extensive
applications in diagnostics and printing. Controlling these patterns by studying the …

The mechanical properties of biomaterials play an important role in regulating life
processes, and thus accurately delineating the mechanical properties of biomaterials is …
