A facial chemical etching method was developed for fabricating stable super-hydrophobic surfaces on aluminum alloy foils. The microstructure and wettability of super-hydrophobic surfaces were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, water contact angle (CA) measurement, and optical methods. The surfaces of the modified aluminum alloy substrates exhibit superhydrophobicity, with a CA of 164.8°±1.6° and a water sliding angle of about 5°. The etched surfaces have binary structure consisting of the irregular microscale plateaus and caves in which there are the nanoscale block-like convexes and hollows.

We report on a simple chemical etching method that enables nonlinear tapering of Polymer Optical Fiber (POF) tips to manufacture Compound Parabolic Concentrator (CPC) fiber tips. We show that, counter-intuitively, nonlinear tapering can be achieved by first etching the core and not the cladding. The etching mechanism is modelled and etched tips are characterized both geometrically and optically in a fluorescence glucose sensor chemistry. A Zemax model of the CPC tipped sensor predicts an optimal improvement in light capturing efficiency of a factor of 3.96 compared to the conventional sensor with a plane-cut fiber tip. A batch of eight CPC fiber tips has been manufactured by the chemical etching method. The batch average showed an increase of a factor of 3.16, which is only 20% less than the predicted value. The method is reproducible and can be up-scaled for mass production.

This paper presents the data for frequency trimming of the single port STW resona-tors in a frequency range of 500–1000 MHz by plasma chemical etching method. The main parameters of resonators after frequency trimming are given: frequency tolerance <±100·10–6, quality factor of 8600–9500, equivalent elements needed for use of the STW resonators.
