Gecko Adhesion and Gecko-Inspired Dry Adhesives: From Fundamentals to Characterization and Fabrication Aspects

This study focuses on fabrication of dry adhesives mimicking gecko adhesion. We also look into the origin of the supreme adhesion of geckos, which have inspired the fabrication of fibrillar dry adhesives during the last decade or so. In principle, the superior material properties of ??-keratin (the...
