Influence of geometric patterns of microstructured superhydrophobic surfaces on water-harvesting performance via dewing.
On superhydrophobic (SHPo) surfaces, either of two wetting states-the Cassie state (i.e., nonwetted state) and the Wenzel state (i.e., wetted state)-can be observed depending on the thermodynamic energy of each state and external conditions. Each wetting state leads to quite a distinctive dynamic characteristic of the water drop on SHPo surfaces, and it has been of primary interest to understan...
متن کاملDirecting droplets using microstructured surfaces.
Systematic variation of microscale structures has been employed to create a rough superhydrophobic surface with a contact angle gradient. Droplets are propelled down these gradients, overcoming contact angle hysteresis using energy supplied by mechanical vibration. The rough hydrophobic surfaces have been designed to maintain air traps beneath the droplet by stabilizing its Fakir state. Dimensi...
متن کاملClassification of the pre-settlement behaviour of barnacle cyprids.
Barnacle cyprids exhibit a complex swimming and exploratory behaviour on surfaces and settlement is a consequence of extensive surface probing and selection of suitable settlement sites. In this work, the behaviour of cyprids in their pre-settlement phase was studied by three-dimensional video stereoscopy. With this technique, three-dimensional trajectories were obtained that were quantitativel...
متن کاملDifferent interfacial behaviors of peptides chemically immobilized on surfaces with different linker lengths and via different termini.
Molecular structures such as conformation and orientation are crucial in determining the activity of peptides immobilized to solid supports. In this study, sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy was applied to investigate such structures of peptides immobilized on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). Here cysteine-modified antimicrobial peptide cecropin P1 (CP1) was chemically imm...
متن کاملRhoA Controls Wnt Upregulation on Microstructured Titanium Surfaces
Rough topography enhances the activation of Wnt canonical signaling in vitro, and this mediates its effects on cell differentiation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying topography-dependent control of Wnt signaling are still poorly understood. As the small GTPase RhoA controls cytoskeletal reorganization and actomyosin-induced tensional forces, we hypothesized that RhoA could affect th...
