Figure 3

Experimental profiles of water and FC-72 at different magnifications and their comparisons. (a) Whole droplet profiles of water and FC-72 and different zooms at their advancing menisci. and show the advancing menisci of water and FC-72 close to the contact point at no zoom. and demonstrate the advancing meniscus of FC-72 under virtual and physical zoom set to be inversely proportional to the ratio of its capillary length to water. (b) Overlap of and shows the matching of water and FC-72 (virtual zoom) advancing menisci except the blurred region in FC-72 due to limited resolution and lighting. (c) Overlap of and shows the matching of water and FC-72 (physical zoom) advancing menisci with the blurred region resolved by higher magnification. (d) Overlap of , and summarizes the conclusions from (b) and (c).
