For the ones into #polymers, polydisperse PDMS brushes displayed a vertical phase separation akin to which is accompanied by a previously unreported lateral phase separation — the waviness.

A little spoiler: #molecularDynamics and #AFM experiments agree in pointing out that exposed patches of the substrate account for increased contact angle hysteresis at low coverages, while thicker PDMS layers show increased deformability and unexpected waviness.
