چکیده
A smart surface with wettability that can be switched between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity has been realized on a transparent and conductive SnO2 nanorod film by the alternation of UV-irradiation and dark storage.

UV-induced Wettability Change of Teflon-modified ZnO Nanorod Arrays on LiNbO3 Substrate
Aligned ZnO nanorod arrays films were grown on LiNbO3 substrates by aqueous growth, and subsequently rendered superhydrophobic with RF sputtered coated Teflon. The as-prepared surface exhibits superhydrophobicity with a water contact angle (CA) of 154.5. After 2 hours of UV irradiation on the surface, the surface wettability was approaching hydrophilic state; CA was measured to be 113. This stu...
متن کاملFemtosecond laser induced hierarchical ZnO superhydrophobic surfaces with switchable wettability.
A simple and one-step method to form a rough ZnO layer consisting of micro/nanoscale hierarchical structures via direct femtosecond laser ablation of the Zn surface is reported for the first time. The resultant surfaces show switchable wettability between superhydrophobicity and quasi-superhydrophilicity via alternate UV irradiation and dark storage.
متن کاملElectricity-induced switchable wettability and controllable water permeation based on 3D copper foam.
A novel and simple method to realize the switch between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity on a (N-dodecyltrimethoxysilane)-modified 3D copper foam by electrode processes is reported. Such electricity-induced switchable wettability with rapid responsiveness and wide-range variation can be applicable in controllable water permeation and other relevant areas.

Tunable water adhesion was realized on a TiO(2) nanotube film with patterned wettability formed via selective illumination through a mask. Meanwhile, the adhesion can be switched between sliding superhydrophobicity and sticky superhydrophobicity by masked illumination and heat annealing.
متن کاملGrowth and optical properties of ZnO nanorod arrays on Al-doped ZnO transparent conductive film
ZnO nanorod arrays (NRAs) on transparent conductive oxide (TCO) films have been grown by a solution-free, catalyst-free, vapor-phase synthesis method at 600°C. TCO films, Al-doped ZnO films, were deposited on quartz substrates by magnetron sputtering. In order to study the effect of the growth duration on the morphological and optical properties of NRAs, the growth duration was changed from 3 t...
