“…Wrinkles widely exist in nature, and the phenomenon has been a focus in recent years − from avoiding performance penalties to exploiting surface morphology and properties. The wrinkles have found broad applications in electronic device diffraction gratings, functional surfaces, microlens arrays, dry adhesives, smart windows, stretchable electronics, and advanced optical devices. ,− Many works have been performed on the strategies for wrinkle fabrication and mechanisms in layered systems, achieving significant progress in the elaboration of functional and micro/nanostructured surfaces. The underlying mechanism of wrinkling is the instability of the energy and mechanical properties. − The widely studied representative system is the typical bilayer system with a rigid top layer on a soft elastic substrate. ,, The surface wrinkles appear when the residual stresses exceed a critical value induced by the external stimulus, ,− such as heating, light, solvent swelling, mechanical stretching/compression, and applying an electric field.…”
