Towards the determination of surface energy at the nanoscale
Surface energy, the work required to generate the surface of a solid or liquid, is an important property influencing a wide range of interfacial processes. This property determines physical interactions between phases, e.g., the degree of hydrophilicity of a solid surface and the surface adhesion of...
