Wetting phenomena are ubiquitous in nature and technology. A solid substrate exposed to
the environment is almost invariably covered by a layer of fluid material. In this review, the …

While the behaviour of large amounts of liquid is dictated by gravity, surface forces become
dominant at small scales. They have for example the remarkable ability to make droplets …

Any solid surface is intrinsically rough on the microscopic scale. In this paper, we study the
effect of this roughness on the wetting properties of hydrophilic substrates. Macroscopic …

We show that condensation in a capped capillary slit is a continuous interfacial critical
phenomenon, related intimately to several other surface phase transitions. In three …

We employ molecular dynamics simulations to study the wettability of nanoscale rough
surfaces in systems governed by Lennard-Jones (LJ) interactions. We consider both smooth …

We present numerical studies of complete, first-order and critical wedge filling transitions, at
a right angle corner, using a microscopic fundamental measure density functional theory …

Complete wetting of geometrically structured substrates by one-component fluids with long-
ranged interactions is studied theoretically. We consider periodic arrays of rectangular or …

The wetting and filling properties of a fluid adsorbed on a solid grooved substrate are
studied by means of a microscopic density functional theory. The grooved substrates are …

Interfacial phenomena associated with fluid adsorption in two dimensional systems have
recently been shown to exhibit hidden symmetries, or covariances, which precisely relate …

We study the order of capillary condensation and evaporation transitions of a simple fluid
adsorbed in a deep capillary groove using a fundamental measure density functional theory …
