June 2019: Paper accepted in Matter

In this paper, we use MD simulations to show that a liquid drop behaves a nanoparticle and exhibits elastocapillary adhesion behavior on a layer of solvophobic polymer brushes. This is Parth’s 9th paper, Yanbin’s 10th, Harnoor’s 12th paper, and Haoyuan’s 13th paper from the group. Congrats all !!!!
