The mechanism involved in the disruption of a liquid into a spray of droplets when subjected to an intense electric field is poorly understood. At a critical potential the so-called Taylor cone develops, with a fine stable jet issuing from its tip. The first direct observation of jet formation have been made and the results, presented here, demonstrate the role of electrical shear effects in this process and invalidate those theories that assume a uniform velocity profile for the liquid in the conical base of the jet.
