Hybrid Surface Patterns Mimicking the Design of the Adhesive Toe Pad of Tree Frog
Longjian Xue, Belén Sanz, Aoyi Luo +10
Biological materials achieve directional reinforcement with oriented assemblies of anisotropic building blocks. One such example is the nanocomposite structure of keratinized epith…
Quantifying the structural integrity of nanorod arrays
Florian Thöle, Longjian Xue, Claudia Heß +3
Arrays of aligned nanorods oriented perpendicular to a support, which are accessible by top-down lithography or by means of shape-defining hard templates, have received increasing…
The Influence of Surface Topography and Surface Chemistry on the Anti-Adhesive Performance of Nanoporous Monoliths
Anna Eichler-Volf, Longjian Xue, Gregor Dornberg +7
We designed spongy monoliths allowing liquid delivery to their surfaces through continuous nanopore systems (mean pore diameter ca. 40 nm). These nanoporous monoliths were flat or…
Nanoporous monolithic microsphere arrays have anti-adhesive properties independent of humidity
Anna Eichler-Volf, Longjian Xue, Alexander Kovalev +3
Bioinspired artificial surfaces with tailored adhesive properties have attracted significant interest. While fibrillar adhesive pads mimicking gecko feet are optimized for strong r…
