Replacing the conductor with a semiconductor results in asymmetrical electrowetting behavior (in terms of voltage polarity), depending on the semiconductor doping type and density. Incident light above the semiconductor's band gap creates photo-induced carriers via electron-hole pair generation in the depletion region of the underlying ...
For many surface/adsorbate configurations, surface energy data and experimental observations are unavailable. As wetting interactions are of great importance in various applications, it is often desired to predict and compare the wetting behavior of various material surfaces with particular crystallographic orientations, with relation to water ...
Optoelectrowetting (OEW) is a method of liquid droplet manipulation used in microfluidics applications. This technique builds on the principle of electrowetting, which has proven useful in liquid actuation due to fast switching response times and low power consumption.
The United States obligated nearly $440 million in assistance to South Africa in 2023, the most recent U.S. government data showed.
According to Our World in Data, the United States was the top consumer of municipal water (for drinking, cooking, and washing) until 2003, when China surpassed us. Still, Americans are holding on ...
A related term sealing current (aka wetting current or fritting current) is widely used in the telecommunication industry describing a small constant DC current (typically 1-20 mA) in copper wire loops in order to avoid contact oxidation of contacts and splices.
A new study found that omega-3 slowed biological aging by up to four months, with vitamin D and strength training boosting the effects: A neurologist explains.
