Evaporation Dynamics of Macro- and Nanodroplets on Heated Hydrophilic Rough Substrates: The Effect of Roughness and Scale.

Droplet evaporation on rough substrates plays an essential role in cooling and micro/nanoparticle assembly. Currently, there are numerous macroscopic experiments and theoretical models to investigate the droplet evaporation behavior on rough substrates. However, due to the complexity of this phenomenon, understanding its mechanisms solely through macroscale studies is difficult.
