摘要：
Recent studies aimed at establishing principles for active control of the physicochemical properties of interfaces have made substantial progress towards demonstrating spatial and temporal control of interfacial properties of both liquids and solids. Light-active and redox-active surfactants have been shown to permit large(> 20 mN/m) and reversible changes in the surface tensions of liquids on time-scales of seconds. These changes can be directed to localized regions of liquids with sub-millimeter spatial resolution, thus providing new means to create controlled gradients in surfactant-based properties of liquids (e.g. gradients in surface tension). Progress has also been reported in the electrowetting of liquids on the surfaces of solids, although it is still not possible to use an external electric field to cause an aqueous solution to wet a hydrophobic surface.
