Bioinspired Superhydrophobic Surfaces via Laser-Structuring

Bioinspired superhydrophobic surfaces are a key artificial functional surface that mainly extracts morphological designs from natural organisms. How to develop large-area surfaces with water repellence is important for both laboratory research and industry. Nowadays, more severe requirements such as chemical-free treatment and high surface roughness are challenging current surface modification methods. Laser micro-nanofabrications are well-known for their non-contact processing and outstanding patterning ability. Herein, we briefly reviewed surface structuring toward superhydrophobic surfaces via multiple laser patterning methods
