W E I V E R DOI: 10.1002/adma.200800836 Bio-Inspired, Smart, Multiscale Interfacial Materials** By Fan Xia and Lei Jiang* In this review a strategy for the design of bioinspired, smart, multiscale interfacial (BSMI) materials is presented and put into context with recent progress in the field of BSMI materials spanning natural to artificial to reversibly stimuli-sensitive interfaces. BSMI materials that respond to single/dual/multiple external stimuli, e.g., light, pH, electrical fields, and so on, can switch reversibly between two entirely opposite properties. This article utilizes hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity as an example to demonstrate the feasibility of the design strategy, which may also be extended to other properties, for example, conductor/insulator, p-type/n-type semiconductor, or ferromagnetism/anti-ferromagnetism, for the design of other BSMI materials in the future. 1. Introduction their environmental conditions and a triggered control of interfacial properties at the solid/water interface can be found Learning from Nature means taking ideas from Nature and in ion channels,[13] directional surface motions,[16] and developing novel functional materials based on these concepts, bioinspired, smart surfaces with controllable wettability and as has been the case for, e.g., bio-inorganic materials adhesion.[17,18] The self-cleaning effect of lotus leaves,[19] the (biomineralization),[1] bioinspired, multiscale structured mate- anisotropic de-wetting behavior of rice leaves,[20] the super- rials (chi
