Figure 3. Measurement of aqueous film thickness on PSM at different matric potentials.

Figure 3

Aqueous films were measured on the surface of ‘rough’ (a) and ‘smooth’ (b) PSM, using 3D scanning laser microscopy, with a detection limit of ≈2 μm. Three random PSM areas of 200 μm x 289 μm were analyzed. For each area, aqueous film data from ten equidistant x-axis transects were pooled, and the probability function was estimated using kernel density estimation. The measurements at different matric potential values were done sequentially.
