This thesis deals with the surface of a gecko in relation to its adhesion ability. Understanding the mechanism of movement and adhesion principle is important for the design and manufacture of nanostructured material. Likewise, knowledge of the origin of the self-cleaning ability allows the description of the influence of surface structure on movement and forces acting at the contact. The work describes the process of making nanostructured surface, which was modified in order to obtain maximum adhesion forces. The material properties were determined by the values of wettability and by force spectrum measurement. Their results were compared with the theoretical assumption of capillary forces and other possibilities to increase adhesion.
