Abstract:The evaporation-driven motion and deposition dynamics of nanoparticles (NPs) play significant roles in inkjet-printed structures such as the finger electrodes of solar cells. The objective of the present work is to reveal the mechanisms of NPs motion and distribution on a textured surface in the multidroplets impact, coalescence and evaporation process. However, the complex interplay among NPs, host fluids and textured medium presents great challenges to numerical modeling. In this paper, a hybrid 3D lattice B… 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.
