Capillary Wicking on <i>Heliamphora minor</i>-Mimicking Mesoscopic Trichomes Array
Liquid spontaneously spreads on rough lyophilic surfaces, and this is driven by capillarity and defined as capillary wicking. Extensive studies on microtextured surfaces have been applied to microfluidics and their corresponding manufacturing. However, the imbibition at mesoscale roughness has seldo...
