Most attempts for the measurement of line tension in solid-liquid-vapor systems are based on the drop size dependence of contact angles of sessile drops on smooth, homogeneous solid surfaces. Despite being a well-defined thermodynamic quantity, there are still significant discrepancies in both the m
