Inspired by superhydrophobic leaves of water plants a flexible superhydrophobic self-cleaning
transparent thin polymeric nanofur film was fabricated through highly scalable hot embossing
and hot pulling techniques. Nanofur can retain an air film underwater whose stability against
external stimuli such as high pressure and movement through fluids is investigated.
Additionally the optical properties of nanofur are investigated and exploited to enhance the
efficiency of optoelectronic devices.
