Hierarchical pillar arrays consisting of micrometer-sized polymer setae covered by carbon nanotubes are engineered to deliver the role of spatulae, mimicking the fibrillar adhesive surfaces of geckos. These biomimetic structures conform well and achieve better attachment to rough surfaces, providing a new platform for a variety of applications.
分层柱阵由微米大小的聚合物刚毛组成，表面覆盖着碳纳米管，其设计目的是发挥刮板的作用，模拟壁虎的纤维状粘附表面。这些仿生结构能够很好地贴合，并实现对粗糙表面更好的附着，为各种应用提供了新的平台。
