| Description | This cluster of papers explores the dynamics, stability, and pattern formation in thin liquid films, with a focus on dewetting phenomena, electric field-induced instabilities, spin coating processes, and solid-state dewetting. The research investigates the influence of various factors such as surface tension, morphology changes, and polymer film behavior. |
