Controlling Condensation of Water Using Hybrid Hydrophobic-Hydrophilic Surfaces

Heterogeneous nucleation of water plays an important role in wide range of natural and industrial processes. Though heterogeneous nucleation of water is ubiquitous and everyday experience, spatial control of this important phenomenon is extremely difficult. Here we show, for the first time, that spa...
