Straightforward and precise approach to replicate complex hierarchical structures from plant surfaces onto soft matter polymer
The surfaces of plant leaves are rarely smooth and often possess a species-specific micro- and/or nano-structuring. These structures usually influence the surface functionality of the leaves such as wettability, optical properties, friction and adhesion in insect–plant interactions. This work presen...
