The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.6 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.6 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00013 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.14 SJR: 0.201 SNIP: 0.313 CiteScore™:: 1.2 H-Index: 13

ABSTRACT

Surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRi) is an inexpensive label-free technique that is sensitive to the change of the refractive index at the solid-fluid interface. The mainstream application of SPRi in thermal and fluid science is associated with visualization of low-frequency interfacial phenomena. In this work, SPRi is employed as a means to visualize interfacial phenomena with high-frequency features of coalescence during dropwise condensation. The corresponding image processing method to detect materials on the solid surface is demonstrated. Two methods of increasing temporal resolutions are implemented to record the three steps of a coalescence evolution − bridge formation, composite peanut shape droplet formation, and the relaxation stage − at 10,000 frames per second (fps). The first method focuses on shortening the illumination path using a biconvex lens with a short focal length as a collimator. The second technique increases the optical power of an incident light by broadening a bandpass filter. The broadening increases the temporal resolution, but at the expense of reducing sensitivity in the SPR system. In our SPRi instrument, at 523 nm, broadening the bandpass filter from full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 10 nm to FWHM of 60 nm increases the temporal resolution by 233% but decreases the sensitivity by 14.5%.
