## Abstract Transparent superhydrophobic surfaces were prepared by selfβassembly of hydrophobic nβoctaβ decyltrimethoxysilane (H~3~C(CH~2~)~17~Si(OCH~3~)~3~, ODS) and (3,3,3βtrifluoropropyl)trimethoxysilane (F~3~C(CH~2~)~2~Si(OCH~3~)~3~, FAS3) monolayers from gas phase on transparent nanoporous alu
An atomic force microscope was used to measure forces between self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of hexadecanethiol as a function of solvent type. Solvents alter interactions between surfaces by changing the wetting properties of the surface. Adhesive forces decrease with solvent dielectric constant a
