Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Polymer Physics
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Polymeric films exhibit surface instability, leading to pattern formation under electric fields.
  • Electrohydrodynamic patterning (EHDP) offers a contactless, bottom-up approach for micro-/nano-fabrication.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the theoretical, numerical, and experimental aspects of electrohydrodynamic patterning (EHDP).
  • To discuss strategies for fabricating high-aspect-ratio and hierarchical patterns.
  • To highlight the alignment of anisotropic polymers using EHDP.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical and numerical simulations of EHDP.
  • Experimental investigations of pattern formation.
  • Analysis of characteristic wavelength and time dependencies.

Main Results:

  • EHDP's characteristic wavelength and time are influenced by external conditions (voltage, film thickness) and polymer properties (rheology, electrical, surface tension).
  • Strategies for creating high-aspect-ratio and hierarchical patterns were reviewed.
  • EHDP effectively aligns anisotropic polymers.

Conclusions:

  • EHDP is a versatile and cost-effective patterning technique for polymers.
  • The review provides insights into controlling pattern formation and future research directions.
  • EHDP shows promise for advanced material fabrication and self-assembly.
