• Fluid Slip and Drag Reduction on Liquid-Infused Surfaces under High Static Pressure 

      Vega-Sanchez, Christopher; Neto, Chiara
      Published 2024
      Liquid-infused surfaces (LIS) have been shown to reduce the huge frictional drag affecting microfluidic flow and are expected to be more robust than superhydrophobic surfaces when exposed to external pressure as the lubricant ...

    • Advances and challenges in slippery covalently-attached liquid surfaces 

      Gresham, Isaac J.; Neto, Chiara
      Published 2023
      Over the past decade, a new class of slippery, anti-adhesive surfaces known as slippery covalently-attached liquid surfaces (SCALS) has emerged, characterized by low values of contact angle hysteresis (CAH, less than 5◦) ...
