Book cover Wrinkled Polymer Surfaces

Abstract

In this chapter, the different strategies to fabricate wrinkled surface morphologies are described. The methodologies have been classified as a function of the film structure, i.e., layered films, depth-wise gradient, or homogeneous films. Layered films are formed by different substrates and different top layers. The bilayer systems described in the literature have been organized and grouped, and finally, the wrinkle formation is described as a function of the stimulus employed. The same strategy has been employed to describe the wrinkle formation in depth-wise gradient and homogeneous films. As a result, a discussion about the particularities of each stimulus employed is reported.
