Abstract

Biomimetic Superhydrophobic Surfaces In article number 2200349, Masanobu Naito and co-workers unveil the mystery of superhydrophobic surfaces with gecko, petal and lotus effects. The study discloses a facile topography evolution path to achieve these surfaces by controlling roughness factor and length scale of roughness. It presents a manifest correlation between surface topography and water droplet dynamics. The paper provides insight into superhydrophobic science and application guidelines.
