Fig. 1. SEM image of a spiked PAA surface in cross section at 20◦ inclination, thickness 4um. Note the visible steps made by alternation of 8 anodization and 7 etching steps.
Material and methods – Fabrication Anodization parameters:
Anodization: 320 V, 0.051 A/m2 at 18-20 ̊C, 0.1175 M Citric acid Pore widening etching: 2 wt% Tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) at 18 ̊C
F0~F5: Baked for 15 min at 150 ̊CAfter baked:• F3: Spin coated at 1000rpm with 2wt% Hyflon in 3M Fluorinert(FC-40)• F5: Spin coated with PGMEA:HMDS in 4:1 solution at 4000rpm
→ Followed by F3 Hyflon solution
