20. 1/2 in oxides, respectively. Those at approximately 74 eV and 577 eV originate from Al 2p and Cr 2p in oxides, respectively. The surface composition was estimated by comparing the product of the 74 eV peak area and the aluminum sensitivity factor to the product of the (459+465) eV peak area and the titanium sensitivity factor. Similarly, the surface composition of Cr/(Cr+Ti) was estimated using the product of 577 eV peak area and the chromium sensitivity factor
21. Ra was obtained by atomic force microscopy (AFM; SPI 3700, Seiko Instruments, Inc.). The Ra values of surfaces (b)-(e) could not be obtained because their roughnesses were too high and deep to measure
22. SEM images only show small fractions, however, we confiemed the identical structures were spread over the entire surfaces, not depending on the field of views

33. In the present data, θ″ and θ are 130° and 80°, respectively. Then, according to eqn (2), cos 130° = fcos 80° + f-1. The calculated f value was 0.30
34. Surface (e) had a rather large thickness compared with the other surfaces (b)-(e). However, surface thickness has no effect on hydrophobic conversion behavior
