Spontaneous capillary flow (SCF) in microchannels occurs for specific geometrical and wetting conditions. When the channel walls form corner angles with the channel bottom, liquid filaments may form in the corners. These capillary filaments are often called Concus-Finn (CF) filaments, and they can t...
