Leidenforst Motion: Leidenfrost Motion of Water Microdroplets on Surface Substrate: Epitaxy of Gallium Oxide via Mist Chemical Vapor Deposition (Adv. Mater. Interfaces 6/2021)

The Leidenforst motion of diluted water micro-droplets on hot flat substrates enables the growth of α-Ga2O3 thin films via mist chemical vapor deposition. The incident probability, incident angle, lifetime, and gliding distance of the microdroplets at surface vicinity determine the growth behaviors of the epilayer.
