Abstract:
The study investigated the wettability of polar and nonpolar ZnO nanowire surfaces, the effect of defects on the transition from hydrophobic to hydrophilic state of the surface of a ZnO nanowire array, and the atomic-level mechanisms of reversible wettability using first-principles density functional theory and pseudopotential methods.
