Abstract
⺠A convenient yet effective method of combining reactive ion etching and catalyzed etching to prepare silicon surface with micro-nano dual-scale pillars is presented. ⺠The hydrophilic surface transformed to a superhydrophobic surface when micro-nano dual-scale pillars were formed. ⺠The surface preserved superhydrophobicity even when the geometric parameters of the micropillars were changed. ⺠Overhangs of water drops on steep micro-nano dual-scale pillars result in superhydrophobicity.
