Cassie–Baxter and Wenzel States on a Nanostructured ...
2019-5-26 · In this work, we study the wetting of a surface decorated with one nanogroove by a bulk Lennard-Jones liquid at various temperatures and densities. We used atomistic simulations aimed at computing the free energy of the stable and metastable states of the system, as well as the intermediate states separating them. We found that the usual description in terms of Cassie–Baxter and Wenzel ...
