Surfaces endowed with three-dimensional (3D) mesostructures, showing features in the nanometer to micrometer range, are critical for applications in several fields of science and technology. Finding a fabrication method that is simultaneously inexpensive, simple, fast, versatile, highly scalable, and capable of producing complex 3D shapes is still a challenge. Herein, we characterize the photoreconfiguration of a micropillar array of an azobenzene-containing polymer at different light wavelengths and demonstrate the tailoring of the surface geometry and its related functionality only using light. By changing the irradiated light wavelength and its polarization, we demonstrate the fabrication of various complex isotropic and anisotropic 3D mesostructures from a single original pristine geometry. Quantitative morphological analyses revealed an interplay between the decay rate of absorbed light intensity, micropillar volume preservation, and the cohesive forces between the azopolymer chains as the origin of distinctive wavelength-dependent 3D structural remorphing. Finally, we show the potentialities of this method in surface engineering by photoreshaping a single original micropillar surface into two sets of different mesostructured surfaces exhibiting tunable hydrophobicity in a wide water contact angle range. Our study opens up a new paradigm for fabricating functional 3D mesostructures in a simple, low-cost, fast, and scalable manner.
