Tolman length
text:
The Tolman length δ measures the extent by which the surface tension of a small liquid drop deviates from its planar value. It is conveniently defined in terms of an expansion in 1 / R , with R = R e the equimolar radius of the liquid drop, of the pressure difference across the droplet's surface: In this expression, Δ p = p l − p v is the pressure difference between the (bulk) pressure of the liquid inside and the pressure of the vapour outside, and σ is the surface tension of the planar interfa
