TL;DR: In this paper, a transparent and hydrophobic cerium oxide films with stable mechanical properties are deposited onto glass substrates by magnetron sputtering technique and it is found that water contact angle is correlated with surface roughness and surface chemistry.

TL;DR: In this article, micro-square holes can effectively accelerate and magnify the wetting transition, reducing the transition period of sputtered Cu films from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, finally, water droplet pinned tightly to the film surfaces.

TL;DR: In this article, the surface morphology, microstructure, surface chemistry, as well as wetting properties of CeO2 films with varying thickness and controllable wettability could find various practical applications.

TL;DR: The relationship between the crystal structure and hydrophobicity of cerium oxide has not been systematically studied as discussed by the authors, however, it is experimentally and theoretically demonstrated that the water contact angle (105.9°) of the (111) surface is higher than that (91.7°) surface, associated with the lower surface free energy (28.44 mN/m) of ( 111) surface than that of (220) surface.

TL;DR: In this paper, a microwave absorbing body based on a YIG thin film material and a preparation method was proposed for the field of electromagnetic wave absorbing materials, in particular to a microwave body using YIG target material.
