The contact area between liquids and solid surfaces plays the crucial role in the wetting and self-cleaning properties of surfaces. In this study, we have developed a cryo-preparation method to visualize the contact area between liquids and superhydrophobic biological surfaces by scanning electron microscopy. Aqueous liquids that do not crystallize during, freezing, such as glycerol and phosphoric acid, were used. First, the samples in contact with the liquid droplets were cooled with liquid nitrogen. After this, the droplets were separated and the contact areas oil the frozen droplets were visualized by scanning electron microscopy. The contact areas of droplets oil various biological and artificial surfaces with microstructure, nanostructure, and hierarchical Structures are shown in detail. It could be shown that spaces between nanostructures were not penetrated by the droplet, which rested only on lot of the structures. Measurements or the contact areas showed the largest reduction in the solid-liquid contact area oil hierarchically structured leaf surfaces. On these surfaces, the droplets are in the "Cassie state" at both levels of surface structuring. On plant surfaces, the varying height of the epidermal cells and the surface relief caused considerable variations in the contact between droplet and surface. The examples demonstrate that this new approach provides detailed insights into the wetting behavior of surfaces in the Cassie state with partial contact with the liquid.
