Multilayer liquid spreading on superhydrophilic nanostructured surfaces
A phenomenon is presented where a propagating liquid on an array of nanopillars with scalloped features can separate into multiple layers of liquid films. The scallops were found to act as energy barriers that favor liquid separation into several layers over spreading in a uniform film. An analytica...
