Abstract
A filter material has a layer of porous material and a plurality of structures disposed on a surface of the layer, where each of the structures has a re-entrant geometry. The plurality of structures may be a plurality of ordered structures. A filter material may include a layer of porous material and a plurality of re-entrant structures disposed on a surface of the layer, each of the re-entrant structures including a stem and a cap, where the caps of adjacent structures are attached to each other to form a plurality of pores, where each pore is disposed between adjacent re-entrant structures.
