Anisotropic Wetting Behavior on Gradient Surface Structures Fabricated by Direct Laser Interference Patterning on Stainless Steel

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
In this work, anisotropic line‐like textures with gradually increasing spatial periods from 2.0 to 4.8 µm are fabricated on stainless steel by two‐beam Direct Laser Interference Patterning using a picosecond (ps)laser source. The spontaneous motion of water droplets deposited on these gradient structures in the direction of increasing periodicity is ...
