(color online) (a) Stable pinned surface nanobubble in pure liquids at different degrees of overheating. From left to right, the degree of overheating is increasing. (b) Several typical snapshots during the liquid-to-vapor phase transition in pure liquids process at a high degree of overheating. (c) Stable pinned surface nanobubble in gas–liquid mixtures at different degrees of oversaturation. From left to right, the degree of oversaturation is increasing. (d) Several typical snapshots during the liquid-to-vapor phase transition process in gas–liquid mixtures at a high degree of oversaturation. The figure is reproduced from Ref. [72].
