Many biological surfaces, such as the lotus leaf, have a hierarchically structured surface roughness which is optimized for superhydrophobicity through natural selection. Here we present a molecular dynamics study of liquid droplets in contact with self-affine fractal surfaces. Our results indicate that the contact angle for nanodroplets depends strongly on the root-mean-square surface roughness amplitude but is nearly independent of the fractal dimension D-f of the surface.}, keywords = {J (WoSType)}, cin = {IFF-TH-I}, ddc = {550}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)VDB30}, pnm = {Kondensierte Materie}, pid = {G:(DE-Juel1)FUEK414}, shelfmark = {Physics, Multidisciplinary}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000240545600046}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevLett.97.116103}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/53839}, }
