Evaporation of sessile droplets containing non-volatile solutes dispersed in a volatile solvent
leaves behind ring-like solid stains. As the volatile species evaporates, pinning of the …

Evaporation of a drop, though a simple everyday observation, provides a fascinating subject
for study. Various issues interact here, such as dynamics of the contact line, evaporation …

The evaporation of a sessile droplet spontaneously induces an internal capillary liquid flow.
The surface-tension driven minimisation of surface area and/or surface-tension differences …

The mechanism of droplet drying is a widely concerned fundamental issue since controlling
the deposition morphology of droplet has significant influence on printing, biology pattern …

Self-assembly of quasi-spherical colloidal particles in two-dimensional (2D) arrangements is
essential for a wide range of applications from optoelectronics to surface engineering, from …

The formation of patterns after the evaporation of colloidal droplets deposited on a solid
surface is an everyday natural phenomenon. During the past two decades, this topic has …

The evaporation of particle-laden sessile droplets is associated with capillary-driven
outward flow and leaves nonuniform coffee-ring-like particle patterns due to far-from …

A uniform deposition of the suspended particles in an evaporating droplet is necessary in
many research fields. Such deposition is difficult to achieve, because the coffee-ring effect …

Effects of substrate temperature, substrate wettability, and particle concentration are
experimentally investigated for evaporation of a sessile water droplet containing colloidal …

Drying drops of colloidal dispersions have attracted attention from researchers since the
nineteenth century. The multiscale nature of the problem involving physics at different …
