Re-entrant texture is key to repelling low surface tension liquids like oils, alcohols, and solvents. Here a texture of “micro-hoodoos” is seen under SEM. False coloured. Image courtesy of Dr. K. Golovin. University of Michigan Materials Science & Engineering calendar winning image, 2016.
Megneto-Wheel
Iron oxide nanoparticles self-assemble in a droplet of water. The particle arrange in a very appealing pattern due to the coffee ring (or cheerio) effect. This image was a finalist in the Science as Art competition for the Materials Research Society 2015 annual meeting. False coloured. Image courtesy of Dr. S. Kobaku.
Huddle
When PDMS micro-pillars are sprayed with liquid PDMS resin, they will spontaneously come together and form complex structures. This image was a finalist in the Science as Art competition for the Materials Research Society 2014 annual meeting. False coloured. Image courtesy of Dr. K. Golovin.
