Abstract
The effect of enhancement the hydrophobic properties of the ensemble of micro- and nanostructures ZnO as a result of coating with gold was discovered. For the first time, it has been shown that coating the ensemble with a micro- and nanoparticle ZnO layer of gold leads to a sharp increase in the wetting edge angle from 145° to 168° (water drop volume 5 mm3) and a decrease in the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity transition time under ultraviolet irradiation.
期刊介绍:
Technical Physics Letters is a companion journal to Technical Physics and offers rapid publication of developments in theoretical and experimental physics with potential technological applications. Recent emphasis has included many papers on gas lasers and on lasing in semiconductors, as well as many reports on high Tc superconductivity. The excellent coverage of plasma physics seen in the parent journal, Technical Physics, is also present here with quick communication of developments in theoretical and experimental work in all fields with probable technical applications. Topics covered are basic and applied physics; plasma physics; solid state physics; physical electronics; accelerators; microwave electron devices; holography.
