Droplet and beam trajectories for different beam frequencies. (AC) The normalized displacement (y/D0; see Fig. S2B for definition of y) of the beam impact point (red line) and the trajectory of the droplet centroid (blue line) vs. dimensionless time (t/τ) as exported from the image sequence recorded by the high-speed camera. Time zero is defined as the moment when the droplet and substrate first make contact. The droplet retraction and airborne phases are indicated by the highlighted areas, green and gray, respectively. The natural frequency of the beam (fb) is (A) 0.27 fd, (B) 1.17 fd, and (C) 2.85 fd. (D) Droplet trajectory for the rigid case. Impact parameters are identical for all panels (D0= 2.23 mm, We= 78.8).
