Novel Engineering of Hierarchically Structured Biomimetic Surfaces

Research Project Outline

In order to establish “Biomimetic Engineering”, that is a novel bottom-up typed manufacturing technology inspired by the hierarchical structuring and unique function characterized by self-assembly and self-organization of biological systems, hierarchically structured novel surfaces of various materials from nanometer to micrometer scale are newly prepared by using combination of physical self-organization processes, e.g. regular pattern formation from disorder by using dissipa-tive structures, and chemical plating processes.
