Quantitative characterization of surface topography using spectral analysis (2016, background): “ness of a part has tremendous influence on its functionality. This has been reviewed extensively, e.g. in Ref. [1] and elsewhere. Roughness affects not only surface properties – such as hydrophobicity[2], optical and plasmonic behavior[3], adhesion[4–6], friction and Casimir forces[7] – but also “bu”
Superhydrophobic surfaces: a review on fundamentals, applications, and challenges (2018, background): “If the smooth solid surface is hydrophobic, the roughened solid surface will become superhydrophobic.(21,30,31) The work of Wenzel was extended further by Cassie and Baxter for porous heterogeneous surfaces.”
