Theory of Shape-Shifting Droplets
Haas, Pierre; Goldstein, Raymond Ethan; Smoukov, Stoyan Kostadinov; Cholakova, D; Denkov, N (American Physical SocietyPhysical Review Letters, 2017-02-24)Recent studies of cooled oil emulsion droplets uncovered transformations into a host of flattened shapes with straight edges and sharp corners, driven by a partial phase transition of the bulk liquid phase. Here, we explore ...
