Abstract
The wetting characteristics of micro water droplets on natural mica were observed with an atomic force microscope (AFM) in AC non-contact mode. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influence of long-range van del Waals force and contact line tension in the wetting characteristics of micro-droplets. It might explain the observed higher wettability for micro-droplets than macro-droplets.
