Superhydrophobic/superhydrophilic switching on the surface of ZnO microstructures caused by UV irradiation and argon ion etching process
Keywords:
zinc oxide, nanostructures, hydrophobicity
Abstract
ZnO microstructures of different morphology were investigated using the water contact angle (WCA) analysis. The as-grown ZnO microstructures were found to exhibit pure hydrophobic behavior, which is enhanced with the increase of their surface area. The most hydrophobic structures (WCA = 157 deg.) were found to be the complex microoctapods, containing both the macro-and nanoscale features.
