Journal ArticleDOI
Preventing mussel adhesion using lubricant-infused materials
Shahrouz Amini,Stefan Kolle,Stefan Kolle,Luigi Petrone,Onyemaechi Ahanotu,Steffi Sunny,Clarinda N. Sutanto,Shawn Hoon,Lucas Cohen,Lucas Cohen,James C. Weaver,Joanna Aizenberg,Joanna Aizenberg,Nicolas Vogel,Ali Miserez +14 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that lubricant infusion represents an effective strategy to mitigate marine biofouling and provides insights into the physical mechanisms underlying adhesion prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extremely durable biofouling-resistant metallic surfaces based on electrodeposited nanoporous tungstite films on steel
Alexander B. Tesler,Alexander B. Tesler,Philseok Kim,Stefan Kolle,Stefan Kolle,Caitlin Howell,Caitlin Howell,Onyemaechi Ahanotu,Joanna Aizenberg,Joanna Aizenberg +9 more
TL;DR: A new route to form anti-fouling steel surfaces by electrodeposition of nanoporous tungsten oxide (TO) films is reported, which is as mechanically durable as bare steel and highly tolerant to compressive and tensile stresses due to chemical bonding to the substrate and island-like morphology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multifunctional ferrofluid-infused surfaces with reconfigurable multiscale topography
Wendong Wang,Wendong Wang,Jaako V.I. Timonen,Jaako V.I. Timonen,Andreas Carlson,Andreas Carlson,Dirk-Michael Drotlef,Cathy T. Zhang,Stefan Kolle,Alison Grinthal,Tak Sing Wong,Tak Sing Wong,Tak Sing Wong,Benjamin Hatton,Benjamin Hatton,Sung Hoon Kang,Sung Hoon Kang,Stephen Kennedy,Stephen Kennedy,Joshua Chi,Joshua Chi,Robert Thomas Blough,Metin Sitti,L. Mahadevan,Joanna Aizenberg +24 more
TL;DR: By infusing a ferrofluid into a microstructured matrix and applying a magnetic field, dynamic, multiscale topographical reconfigurations emerge, enabling functions such as colloidal self-assembly, switchable adhesion and friction, and biofilm removal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-Replenishing Vascularized Fouling-Release Surfaces
Caitlin Howell,Caitlin Howell,Thy L. Vu,Thy L. Vu,Jennifer J. Lin,Jennifer J. Lin,Stefan Kolle,Stefan Kolle,Nidhi Juthani,Nidhi Juthani,Emily Watson,Emily Watson,James C. Weaver,Jack Alvarenga,Joanna Aizenberg,Joanna Aizenberg +15 more
TL;DR: The ability of an embedded lubricant-filled vascular network to improve the longevity of fouling-release surfaces by retaining significantly more lubricant under accelerated lubricant loss conditions is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A highly conspicuous mineralized composite photonic architecture in the translucent shell of the blue-rayed limpet
TL;DR: This unique mineralized manifestation of a synergy of two distinct optical elements at specific locations within the continuum of the limpet’s translucent protective shell ensures the vivid shine of the blue stripes, which can be perceived under water from a wide range of viewing angles.
