Surface and interfacial structures induced by electrohydrodynamic instabilities

Subjecting a liquid/liquid interface to an electrohydrodynamic pressure enhances fluctuations of a characteristic wavelength, leading to an instability and eventually the formation of well-defined columnar structures. Extending the linear stability analysis of a single fluid interface to a liquid/li...
