Collapse of superhydrophobicity on nanopillared surfaces
Matteo Amabili, Alberto Giacomello, Simone Meloni +1
The mechanism of the collapse of the superhydrophobic state is elucidated for submerged nanoscale textures forming a three-dimensional interconnected vapor domain. This key issue f…

Intrusion and extrusion of a liquid on nanostructured surfaces
Matteo Amabili, Alberto Giacomello, Simone Meloni +1
Superhydrophobicity is connected to the presence of gas pockets within surface asperities. Upon increasing the pressure this "suspended" state may collapse, causing the complete we…
