- Peel-Zone Model of Tape Peeling Based on the Gecko Adhesive System (2007, methodology): “The fact that van der Waals forces are always present between any two surfaces in contact has motivated the fabrication of dry adhesives inspired by the gecko adhesive system [Geim et al., 2003; Northen and Turner, 2005].”
- Biomimetics: its practice and theory (2006, background): “A single gecko foot hair (seta) adheres equally well to hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces, generating van der Waals forces of 10 MPa, showing that the adhesive properties of gecko setae are a result of the size and shape of the tips, which conform to the local surface topography, and are not stro”
- A novel method for the fabrication of high-aspect ratio C-MEMS structures (2005, background): “using polyimide posts, but the phenomenon remained unexplained [27].”
