Controlling uniform patterns by evaporation of multi-component liquid droplets in a confined geometry

Colloidal spheres confined by liquid droplets: geometry, physics, and physical chemistry

I discuss how colloidal particles organize when they are confined by emulsion droplets. In these systems, the interplay between surface tension and interparticle repulsion drives the formation of complex, non-crystalline 3D arrangements. These can be classified into three groups: colloidosomes, or Pickering emulsions, structures that form when particles are bound to the interface of a spherical...

Patterns formed by droplet evaporation from a restricted geometry.

We show that hundreds of concentric rings, each approximately nanometers high and micrometers wide, form when a drop is allowed to evaporate from a confined geometry, leaving behind a dry, nonvolatile polymer solute. This new preparative strategy offers a simple, versatile, generalizable method to produce patterns of unprecedented high fidelity and regularity, as well as a direction to look to ...

Raman thermometry measurements of free evaporation from liquid water droplets.

Recent theoretical and experimental studies of evaporation have suggested that on average, molecules in the higher-energy tail of the Boltzmann distribution are more readily transferred into the vapor during evaporation. To test these conclusions, the evaporative cooling rates of a droplet train of liquid water injected into vacuum have been studied via Raman thermometry. The resulting cooling ...
