The ideal material for nanophotonic applications will have a large refractive index at optical
frequencies, respond to both the electric and magnetic fields of light, support large optical …

The wettability of solid surfaces is a renewed old topic that has impacted most fields of
science and technology for a long time, from cave painting in the ancient to microfluidic …

We discuss in this review how the roughness of a solid impacts its wettability. We see in
particular that both the apparent contact angle and the contact angle hysteresis can be …
