and Wang s 2013 finding in attempting to develop an improved heat-transfer surface to be used as a condenser in applications such as power plants that droplets on a superhydrophobic surface convert surface energy to kinetic energy as they merge to form larger droplets.

The technology, developed collaboratively by researchers from Cornell University and Rensselaer Polytechnic institute, uses an electrochemical process called anodization to create nanoscale pores that change the electrical charge and surface energy of a metal surface,

Surface energy induced formation of single crystalline bismuth nanowires over vanadium thin film at room temperature. Nano Letters 14 5630#5635 (2014) DOI:

NRL researchers then can exploit the increased surface potential of nanoparticles for surface energy-driven densification without coarsening.
