Effect of nanostructure on the surface dipole moment of photoreversibly tunable superhydrophobic surfaces.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fluorinated azobenzene-modified nanoporous substrates were fabricated such that the surface properties were photoreversibly converted between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity as a result of UV irradiation. This result was attributed to the enhanced surface roughness of the nanostructured surface, which supplied sufficient free space within the monolayer for the tethered azobenzenes to facilely isomerize.

A superhydrophobic ZnO surface was prepared on the stainless steel mesh by a one-step chemical bath deposition method without chemical post-treatment. The effect of adding polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG 6000) as an organic additive and the type of the alkaline agent were investigated on the morphological and wettability properties of ZnO surfaces. The prepared surfaces were characterized by X-ra...
متن کاملSuperhydrophobic surfaces developed by mimicking hierarchical surface morphology of lotus leaf.
The lotus plant is recognized as a 'King plant' among all the natural water repellent plants due to its excellent non-wettability. The superhydrophobic surfaces exhibiting the famous 'Lotus Effect', along with extremely high water contact angle (>150°) and low sliding angle (<10°), have been broadly investigated and extensively applied on variety of substrates for potential self-cleaning and an...
متن کاملPreparation of a novel superhydrophobic PMMA surface with nanostructure and its blood compatibility
Superhydrophobic poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) surface with nanostructure was prepared effectively via phase separation and selective solvent method. It is proposed that the cooperation of the nanostructure of PMMA surface and the surface group reorientation leads to the superhydrophobicity of PMMA surface. The superhydrophobic PMMA surface with nanostructure was characterized by scanning ele...

In this paper, the interaction between an oscillating dipole moment and a Silver nanoparticle has been studied. Our calculations are based on Mie scattering theory and discrete dipole approximation(DDA) method.At first, the resonance frequency due to excitingthe localized surface plasmons has been obtained using Mie scattering theory and then by exciting a dipole moment in theclose proximity of...
متن کاملFlexible Teflon nanocone array surfaces with tunable superhydrophobicity for self-cleaning and aqueous droplet patterning.
Tunable hydrophobic/hydrophilic flexible Teflon nanocone array surfaces were fabricated over large areas (cm(2)) by a simple two-step method involving the oxygen plasma etching of a colloidal monolayer of polystyrene beads on a Teflon film. The wettability of the nanocone array surfaces was controlled by the nanocone array dimensions and various additional surface modifications. The resultant T...
