This paper reports the electrowetting properties of ZnO nanorods. These nanorods were grown on indium tin oxide (ITO) substrates using different liquid-phase deposition techniques and hydrophobized with sputtered Teflon. The surfaces display superhydrophobic properties. When the applied voltages are less than 35 V, the contact angle change is small and exhibits instant reversibility. For higher voltages, larger contact angle changes were observed. However, the surface was not reversible after removing the applied voltage and required mechanical agitation to return to its initial superhydrophobic state.
本文报道了氧化锌纳米棒的电润湿特性。这些纳米棒通过不同的液相沉积技术生长在氧化铟锡（ITO）衬底上，并用溅射的聚四氟乙烯进行疏水化处理。这些表面呈现出超疏水特性。当施加电压小于35V时，接触角变化很小且具有即时可逆性。对于更高的电压，观察到更大的接触角变化。然而，去除施加电压后表面不可逆，需要机械搅拌才能恢复到其初始超疏水状态。
