Assessing the accuracy of contact angle measurements for sessile drops on liquid-repellent surfaces

Gravity-induced sagging can amplify variations in goniometric measurements of the contact angles of sessile drops on super-liquid-repellent surfaces. The very large value of the effective contact angle leads to increased optical noise in the drop profile near the solid-liquid free surface and the pr...
