Journal ArticleDOI

Turning a surface superrepellent even to completely wetting liquids

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that roughness alone, if made of a specific doubly reentrant structure that enables very low liquid-solid contact fraction, can render the surface of any material superrepellent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ionic-surfactant-mediated electro-dewetting for digital microfluidics

TL;DR: A method of droplet manipulation is described that uses electrical signals to induce the liquid to dewet, rather than wet, a hydrophilic conductive surface without the need for added layers, promising a simple and reliable microfluidic platform for a broad range of applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flexible, multifunctional neural probe with liquid metal enabled, ultra-large tunable stiffness for deep-brain chemical sensing and agent delivery.

TL;DR: Taking advantage of the solid-to-liquid phase change of the metal at body temperature and probe shape deformation to provide temperature-dependent control of stiffness over 5 orders of magnitude, PDMS-based microprobes of ultra-large tunable stiffness (ULTS) should serve as an attractive platform for multifunctional chronic neural implants.
Journal ArticleDOI

A dynamic Cassie–Baxter model

TL;DR: A new 2-D model is proposed, which incorporates the contact-line friction and is generalized to a 3-D models, which successfully predicts a wide range of3-D data in the literature regardless of their distinct microstructures and receding modes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intracellular Photothermal Delivery for Suspension Cells Using Sharp Nanoscale Tips in Microwells

TL;DR: This work demonstrates a high-efficiency photothermal delivery approach for suspension cells using sharp nanoscale metal-coated tips positioned at the edge of microwells, which provide controllable membrane disruption for each cell in an array.
