Abstract: Nanoscopic and microscopic water droplets and ice crystals embedded in liquid hydrophobic surroundings are key components of aerosols, rocks, oil fields and the human body. The chemical properties of such droplets critically depend on the… read more here.

Abstract: A simple and effective ratchet-like strategy is introduced to transfer droplets. We creatively put forward that the asymmetric change of the contact angle induced by the asymmetric structure is the fundamental cause of this kind… read more here.
