Scalable Conversion of Superhydrophobic Surfaces to Salvinia Surfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This article reports a scalable method to convert superhydrophobic surfaces into Salvinia surfaces by selectively coating polydopamine on the top surfaces of microstructures. The success is enabled by overcoming a previously unrecognized barrier unique to polydopamine coating on superhydrophobic surfaces.

Computational Analysis of a GST‐Based Long‐Wave Infrared Microring Resonator on a ZnSe Platform as a Photonic Sensor

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
A Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST)‐based microring resonator is designed and simulated on a ZnSe‐platform that operates in the long‐wave infrared (LWIR) wavelength of 8 μm. The structure demonstrates strong power confinement and high Q‐factor. GST resonator is used for gas and biosensing applications.
