Wandering spiders climb vertically and walk upside‐down on rough and smooth surfaces using a nanostructured attachment system on their feet. The spiders are assumed to adhere by intermolecular van der Waals forces between the adhesive structures and the substrate. The adhesive elements are arranged highly ordered on the hierarchically structured attachment hair (setae). While walking, it has been...
Nanostructured adhesive hairs on the feet of spiders are responsible for strong adhesion, enabling the animals to walk vertically and upside down. In article number 2002758, Clemens F. Schaber, Martin Müller, and co‐workers use scanning nanofocus X‐ray scattering under force control to elucidate the mechanism of alignment and consequently strong attachment of the nanostructures to a glass surface...
