| More Details: | We have observed the concentric deposition patterns of small molecules transferred by means of laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT). The patterns comprised different parts whose presence changed with the experimental constraints in a mode-like fashion. In experiments, we studied this previously unknown phenomenon and derived model assumptions for its emergence. We identified aerosol micro-flow and geometric confinement as the mechanism behind the mass transfer and the cause of the concentric patterns. We validated our model using a simulation. |
