    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    We found that light polarization and scattering significantly impact water droplet evaporation, especially on rough surfaces. A new interferometric method precisely measures these effects, enhancing control over interfacial dynamics.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized an interferometric method tracking localized intensity changes.
    • Applied the method to smooth and rough substrates under specific spectral conditions.
    • Analyzed fringe patterns to quantify evaporation enhancement.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated pronounced sensitivity to light polarization and substrate scattering.
    • Successfully recovered clear fringe patterns in low-contrast settings.
    • Observed significant evaporation enhancement due to light scattering from rough substrates.

    Conclusions:

    • Light scattering from rough substrates can substantially boost photomolecular evaporation.
    • The developed interferometric technique overcomes measurement limitations on challenging surfaces.
