The Dry‐Style Antifogging Properties of Mosquito Compound Eyes and Artificial Analogues Prepared by Soft Lithography

The Dry‐Style Antifogging Properties of Mosquito Compound Eyes and Artificial Analogues Prepared... The antifogging properties of mosquito compound eyes (see figure) result from their elaborate superhydrophobic surface structure, which consists of hexagonally non‐close‐packed nipples at the nanoscale and hexagonally close‐packed hemispheres at the microscale. A soft‐lithography approach is adopted to fabricate artificial compound eyes for exploring the effects of the hierarchical micro‐ and nanostructure on surface hydrophobicity. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Advanced Materials Wiley

Abstract

The antifogging properties of mosquito compound eyes (see figure) result from their elaborate superhydrophobic surface structure, which consists of hexagonally non‐close‐packed nipples at the nanoscale and hexagonally close‐packed hemispheres at the microscale. A soft‐lithography approach is adopted to fabricate artificial compound eyes for exploring the effects of the hierarchical micro‐ and nanostructure on surface hydrophobicity.
