A Magnetically Actuated Superhydrophobic Ratchet Surface for Droplet Manipulation

A Magnetically Actuated Superhydrophobic Ratchet Surface for Droplet Manipulation

A water droplet dispensed on a superhydrophobic ratchet surface is formed into an asymmetric shape, which creates a Laplace pressure gradient due to the contact angle difference between two sides. This work presents a magnetically actuated superhydrophobic ratchet surface composed of nanostructured...
