Wetting films: A technique for probing the microscopic meniscus using white light interferometry

The affinity between a liquid and a solid is characterised by the contact angle. Traditional contact angle measurement techniques such as the sessile drop and Wilhelmy plate methods provide macroscopic information about the solid-liquid-vapour contact line. Our knowledge of the microscopic details i...
