Liquid-solid interactions, as never before seen: New technique improves researchers’ ability to measure a key property of material surfaces

Liquid-solid interactions, as never before seen: New technique improves researchers’ ability to measure a key property of material surfaces: "A team of MIT researchers has found a way to obtain images that improves the resolution of wettability measurements by a factor of 10,000 or more, allowing for unprecedented precision in determining the details of the interactions between liquids and solid surfaces. In addition, the new method can be used to study curved, textured or complex solid surfaces,"
