Interplay between interfacial energy, contact mechanics, and capillary forces in EGaIn droplets by Amini, Shahrouz, Chen, Xiaoping, Chua, Isaiah Jia Qing, Tee, Jinq Shi, Nijhuis, Christian A., Miserez, Ali

“…Here, using depth-sensing nanoindentation (DSN) on pristine EGaIn/GaOx surfaces, we uncover how changes in EGaIn/substrate interfacial energies regulate the adhesive and contact mechanic behaviors, notably the evolution of EGaIn capillary bridges with distinct capillary geometries and pressures. Varying the interfacial energy by subjecting EGaIn to different chemical environments and by functionalizing the tip with chemically distinct self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), we show that the adhesion forces between EGaIn and the solid substrate can be increased by up to 2 orders of magnitude, resulting in about a 60-fold increase in the elongation of capillary bridges. …”
