Abstract

Switchable adhesion can be useful for numerous applications, but is extremely challenging when there are fluids at the con- tact interface. Deformable cupped microstructures can switch between high (~1 MPa) and low (<0.2 MPa) adhesion strength by adjusting the retraction velocity from 100 to 0.1 µm/s. The velocity at which the switch occurs is determined by specific design parameters of the cupped microstructure, such as the cup width and angle.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing metal structures, wherein an initiator composition comprising a photocatalytic substance is applied to a substrate. A precursor composition that can be reduced to a metal by the photocatalytic activity of the nanodusts is applied to said layer.
