Figure 3From: Diatom attachment inhibition: limiting surface accessibility through air entrapment In-situ fluorescence microscope image of superhydrophobic surfaces after 5-hour diatom settlement assay. Left) Image taken without visible bubbles in FOV and, Right) A tubular bubble can be seen running diagonally through the FOV. The lens effect can be seen clearly where the fluorescence of diatoms are close to the bubble edge. (Scale bar: 150 μm).Back to article page
