Fabrication of rose petal surface using moth-eye structure

Abstract

The surface with the moth-eye structure applied the release agent has more water-repellency than the a smooth surface due to the structure. Here, the surface structure can be replicated by using nanoimprint lithography. In addition, by roll pressing on the microscale pillar structure, adhesion can be partially imparted without compromising the water-repellent property. Both techniques also produce structures with high throughput.
