title = "An easy route to make superhydrophobic surface",
abstract = "Superhydrophobic films with excellent flexibility have been fabricated on silicon surface, generated by means of a chemical galvanic cell route, within a short span of 10 sec. The results show a water contact angle of 155° (superhydrophobic) for the chemically modified silicon surface while it is 63° (hydrophilic) in pure silicon substrate. The surface roughness increases with well ordered protrusions after the chemical treatment. Surface roughness and low surface energy are ascribed for the superhydrophobic behavior of these chemically modified silicon surfaces.",
