Self-Wrapping Drops
A liquid drop can fold itself up in a thin sheet. The animation above shows a drop of water with an ultra-thin (79nm) circular sheet of polystyrene atop it. As Keep reading
Encapsulating Drops
Building and manipulating drops containing multiple chemicals is useful in pharmaceutical applications. But it can be a challenge to encapsulate multiple fluids without mixing them immediately. The research poster above Keep reading
