1. A fabricated microstructure, comprising:
- a substrate; and
an array of seta structures configured to adhere to a contact surface by van der Waals forces between the array of seta structures and the contact surface, wherein the array of seta structures are disposed on the substrate in opposing orientation to resist peeling when the array of seta structures adhere to the contact surface.

Abstract
A fabricated microstructure includes a base and one or more nano-structures disposed on one or more portions of the base to adhere to a contact surface. The one or more portions of the base with the one or more nano-structures are located on the base such that, when the one or more nano-structures adhere to the contact surface and an external force is applied to peel the base from the contact surface, the one or more nano-structures in the one or more portions of the base facilitate or resist peeling of the nano-structures from the contact surface.
