Stimuli-responsive nanobubbles have received increased attention for their application in
spatial and temporal resolution of diagnostic techniques and therapies, particularly in …

Surface nanobubbles are nanoscopic gaseous domains on immersed substrates which can
survive for days. They were first speculated to exist about 20 years ago, based on stepwise …

Electrochemical gas evolution reactions are of vital importance in numerous electrochemical
processes including water splitting, chloralkaline process, and fuel cells. During gas …

Bulk nanobubbles (BNBs) are submicron gaseous domains dispersed in solutions, which
are supposed to survive for several hours or even days. In recent years, there has been a …

Ultrasound (US) medical technology is widely used due to its advantages of safety, speed,
and low cost. With the rapid development of biomedical nanotechnology …

We present a theoretical model for the experimentally found but counterintuitive
exceptionally long lifetime of surface nanobubbles. We can explain why, under normal …

Interactions between hydrophobic surfaces at nanometer separation distances in aqueous
solutions are important in a number of biological and industrial processes. Force …

A very thin layer (5− 80 nm) of gas phase, consisting of discrete bubbles with only about 40
000 molecules, is quite stable at the interface between a hydrophobic solid and water. We …

Recent experiments have convincingly demonstrated the existence of surface nanobubbles
on submerged hydrophobic surfaces. However, classical theory dictates that small gaseous …

Atomic Force Microscope images and other experiments show us that very small stable
bubbles, known as nanobubbles, can be present on surfaces despite well founded …
