Water droplet motion control on superhydrophobic surfaces : exploiting the Wenzel-to-Cassie transition

Water droplets on rough hydrophobic surfaces are known to exist in two states; one in which the droplet is impaled on the surface asperities (Wenzel state) and the other, a superhydrophobic state in which air remains trapped beneath the droplet (Cassie state). Here, we demonstrate that water droplet...
