Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this study, a superhydrophobic nickel surface that is highly robust against repetitive rubbing is presented. We implanted carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to protect the surfaces from contacts. We show that the CNTs implanted in nickel do not easily detach from the surface and maintain superhydrophobicity despite harsh rubbing (40 kPa, 600 cycles) by 800 grit sandpaper; by contrast, surfaces prepared by typical nanofabrication methods are visibly damaged and lose superhydrophobicity after such treatment. The CNT-implanted nickel surfaces developed in this study are the most robust among nanostructured surfaces reported up to date.
