Water boiling in a kettle, glasses fogging in a humid environment, air plane wings frosting in winter time - these are just a few examples from our everyday life where interfacial phase change phenomena manifest themselves. Such interfacial phase change phenomena are omnipresent, are of critical importance for safety and performance of numerous processes, and occur at the intersection of a multitude of fascinating scientific disciplines ranging from thermodynamics to materials science. This combination makes them the ideal topic for us to study.
