New instrumentation and tools to study dynamic (non-equilibrium) physico-chemical interfacial processes across large length, rates, and time scales (Final Report)

The hydrophobic interaction dictates the behavior of many systems relevant to biological and industrial processes. However, the origin of the hydrophobic interaction has been extensively debated. In this article, we demonstrate the use of nanostructured surfaces to control the range of the hydrophobic interaction. We measure the strength and range of the hydrophobic interaction using bubble probe force microscopy, and interpret our results using the Stokes–Reynolds–Young–Laplace model. Our findings give insights into the mechanisms of the hydrophobic interaction and will lead to better understanding and control of diverse colloidal and interfacial phenomena.
