제목 Fabrication of superhydrophobic surface by liquid crystal lithography (TFCDs array) and reactive ion etching technique
초록 A superhydrophobic surface is a surface with a water contact angle close to or higher than 150o. The research on superhydrophobic surfaces and the related phenomenon of high contact angles dates back a long time. Here, we present that perfect ordered arrays of toric focal conic domains (TFCDs) covering large areas can be formed by semi-fluorinated smectic liquid crystals. Combined with suitable surface treatment for random planar anchoring and controlled geometry, that is, a patterned wafer, our smectic liquid-crystal system exhibits a high density of TFCDs that are arranged with remarkably high regularity through large area. We have fabricated well-ordered, tunable superhydrophobic surface whose water contact angle can be tuned from 95° to 160° using a combination of liquid crystal lithography and conventional reactive ion etching method. It is the combination of surface roughness and low-surface-energy modification of fluorine liquid crystal that leads to superhydrophobicity.
