Self-Lifting NaCl Crystals

[Image: see text] We show that macroscopic crystals of NaCl that form from evaporating drops of aqueous salt solutions can spontaneously lift themselves up and away from a hydrophobic surface. At the end of the evaporation process, tiny crystals of NaCl grow onto larger ones and form “legs” that pus...
