Hydrophobic surface fabricated by laser interference lithography

Abstract

The hydrophobic and self-cleaning effects of micro-nano structures have attracted much attention. In this paper, micro-nano structures have been successfully fabricated on glass substrates by laser interference lithography. The hydrophobic properties of the micro-nano structures have been studied by the determination of the water contact angle(CA). The resultant substrate with micro-nano structures exhibit excellent hydrophobic properties, which can be used as a master for roll-to-roll imprinting technology and easily realize its large-scale manufacture.
