Thin Films with High Surface Tension
This paper is a review of work on thin fluid films where surface tension is a driving mechanism. Its aim is to highlight the substantial amount of literature dealing with relevant physical models and also analytic work on the resultant equations. In general the introduction of surface tension into standard lubrication theory leads to a fourthorder nonlinear parabolic equation
متن کاملSurface Properties of Bottlebrush Polymer Thin Films
Bottlebrush polymer thin films may be attractive for the preparation of antifouling and/or stimuli-responsive surface coatings due to the high grafting density and conformational flexibility of polymeric side chains, but bottlebrush polymer thin films have not been previously reported and their surface properties are unknown. Herein, we report a study of the surface properties of mixed bottlebr...
متن کاملSemiconducting polymer thin films by surface-confined stepwise click polymerization.
Surface-confined stepwise click polymerization was used to prepare surface-attached thin films of semiconducting polymers. These highly uniform films showed extended UV/vis absorption characteristics and a remarkable degree of molecular organization with a unidirectional alignment of the polymer chains normal to the surface.
متن کاملUnsteady spreading of thin liquid films with small surface tension
The method of matched asymptotic expansions is used to solve for the free surface of a thin liquid drop draining down a vertical wall under gravity. The analysis is based on the smallness of the surface tension term in the lubrication equation. In a region local to the front of the drop, where the surface curvature is large, surface tension forces are significant. Everywhere else, the surface c...
متن کاملManipulating Josephson junctions in thin-films by nearby vortices
It is shown that a vortex trapped in one of the banks of a planar edge-type Josephson junction in a narrow thin-film superconducting strip can change drastically the dependence of the junction critical current on the applied field, IcðHÞ. When the vortex is placed at certain discrete positions in the strip middle, the pattern IcðHÞ has zero at H 1⁄4 0 instead of the traditional maximum of ‘0-ty...
