Micrometer scale adhesion on nanometer-scale patchy surfaces : adhesion rates, adhesion thresholds, and curvature-based selectivity

Using a model system based on electrostatics, we probe interactions between spherical particles (negative silica) and planar surfaces that present randomly placed discrete attractive regions, 10 nm in size, in a repulsive background (silica flats carrying cationic surface constructs). Experiments me...
