Despite the potential benefits, surface structuring at the nanoscale presents several challenges:
Precision and Control: Achieving the desired level of precision and control over nanoscale features can be difficult, particularly for complex patterns. Scalability: Many surface structuring techniques are not easily scalable for mass production, which can limit their industrial application. Cost: The high cost associated with certain nanofabrication techniques can be prohibitive for widespread adoption. Durability: Ensuring that the structured surfaces remain stable and functional over time, especially in harsh environmental conditions, is a significant challenge.
