Abstract:In this paper, we report bouncing and separating dynamic behaviors of a liquid metal droplet with/without the oxide layer in response to the applied acoustic wave. When applied the acoustic wave, the oxidized liquid metal droplet is readily bounced off from the surface, while the HCl treated liquid metal droplet is decomposed into several small droplets. We investigated the number of the separated liquid metal droplets for the HCl-treated liquid metal in according to time and acoustic wave amplitude. The bounc… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
