The use of superhydrophobic surfaces is very e¿cient  and costless way to protect the sphericity and provide the position stabilization of liquid  microdroplets. The whispering gallery modes (WGMs) of liquid microdroplets can have  high quality factors due to the large contact angle. The liquid nature of the microdroplets  provides large spectral tuning which can not be obtained by using solid microcavities. The  large spectral tuning ofWGMs of liquid microdroplets can be obtained by the size change by  using evaporation\/condensation kinetics or the shape deformation by using electrowetting.  In this thesis, ¿rst we demonstrate the large spectral tuning of a water-glycerol micro-  droplet standing on a superhydrophobic surface by local heating experimentally by optical  spectroscopy and computationally using a lumped system formulation of the mass and heat transfer between the microdroplet and the chamber. Second, we demonstrate reversible spectral tuning of the whispering gallery modes of glycerol-water microdroplets using electrowetting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783845437484\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Thesis Submitted to the Graduate School of Engineering for for the Degree of Master of Science in Physics\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783845437484","offer_id":39494559826013,"sku":"9783845437484","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/2e83a3b0-e99f-418e-ba86-92a6130500e2.jpg?v=1758954101","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/spectral-tuning-of-liquid-microdroplets-von-yasin-karadag","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
