Direct Laser Interference Patterning: Tailoring of Contact Area for Frictional and Antibacterial Properties

Surface functionalization by topographic micro- and nano-structures in order to achieve unique properties, like super-hydrophobicity or ultrahigh light absorption, is a common strategy in nature. In this paper, direct laser interference patterning (DLIP) is presented as a promising tool allowing for...
