Superhydrophobic surfaces of the water bug Notonecta glauca: a model for friction reduction and air retention

Superhydrophobic surfaces of plants and animals are of great interest for biomimetic applications. Whereas the self-cleaning properties of superhydrophobic surfaces have been extensively investigated, their ability to retain an air film while submerged under water has not, in the past, received much...
