“…Figure d shows the surface area, volume, and surface area to volume ratio (SAV) of three different 3D microstructures. Generally, SAV influences the mechanical, thermal, chemical, and optical properties of 3D microstructures, ,− thereby allowing for the optimization and customization of microstructures for a wide range of applications. However, in the case of 3D microstructures deposited with thin films, the interface between the 3D microstructure and the film plays a critical role in determining the electrochemical reaction at the film surface since the electrode area exposed to an ambient atmosphere is equivalent to the interfacial area.…”
