This review comprises a detailed survey of ongoing methodologies for soft actuators,
highlighting approaches suitable for nanometer‐to centimeter‐scale robotic applications …

A sessile drop is an isolated drop which has been deposited on a solid substrate where the
wetted area is limited by a contact line and characterized by contact angle, contact radius …

Nature is the creation of aesthetic functional systems, in which many natural materials have
vagarious structures. Inspired from nature, such as lotus leaf, butterfly'wings, showing …

The ability of particles to adhere to a fluid–fluid interface can stabilize the formation of an
emulsion. When the encapsulated fluid is a liquid and the fluid in which it is immersed is air …

“Liquid marbles” are liquid‐in‐gas dispersed systems stabilized by hydrophobic solid
particles adsorbed at the gas‐liquid interface. The structure, stability and movement of these …

Liquid marbles are nonstick droplets wrapped by micro-or nanometrically scaled colloidal
particles, representing a platform for a variety of chemical, biological, and microfluidics …

The paper summarizes 10-years of experience gained by various groups in the study of
liquid marbles. Liquid marbles are non-stick droplets wrapped by micro-or nanometrically …

Liquid marbles, that is, liquid drops coated by a hydrophobic powder, do not wet any solid or
liquid substrate, making their transport and manipulation both highly desirable and …

Liquid marbles are liquid drops made completely nonwetting by encapsulating the drop with
a hydrophobic powder. The absence of contact with the substrate avoids contamination …

Liquid marbles are droplets with volume typically on the order of microliters coated with
hydrophobic powder. Their versatility, ease of use and low cost make liquid marbles an …
