N2 - Bacterial residue is one of the main causes of diseases and economic losses. In recent years, microfabrication technology has inspired the introduction of microstructures on the surfaces of relevant materials to provide antibacterial effects. This antibacterial method has become a popular research topic due to its safety, effectiveness, and stability. However, its exact mechanism is still under debate. In this study, normal force was introduced to bacteria on GaN nanopillars to investigate the mechanical sterilization effects and a computer simulation was conducted. The results show that the normal force induces highly efficient mechanical sterilization of the nanopillars, and their surfaces impede the attachment of bacteria. This study provides insights into the antibacterial effect of nanopillars and offers a potential antibacterial tool with high efficiency.
