Negative pressure characteristics of an evaporating meniscus at nanoscale

<p>Abstract</p> <p>This study aims at understanding the characteristics of negative liquid pressures at the nanoscale using molecular dynamics simulation. A nano-meniscus is formed by placing liquid argon on a platinum wall between two nano-channels filled with the same liquid. Eva...
