Microcontact printing of colloidal crystals.

چکیده
Patterned two-dimensional (2D) colloidal crystals have been transferred by a modified mucp technique that was based on the use of polymer film as "glue" to provide an efficient interaction between the microsphere "ink" and substrate. The versatility of this method has been demonstrated by the patterning of colloidal crystal on a nonplanar substrate and heterogeneously structured colloidal crystal film. The table of contents graphic shows an SEM image of the ordered parallel lines of 2D colloidal crystals on a polymer-coated glass tube with a 3.7 mm radius of curvature.

Fabrication of asymmetrically coated colloid particles by microcontact printing techniques
We developed a novel method for preparation of asymmetrically coated colloid particles by using a microcontact printing technique. Films of water-insoluble ionic surfactants deposited on PDMS stamps were printed onto latex particle monolayers of opposite surface charge in order to produce spherical latex particles of dipolar surface charge distribution. We studied the effects of salt on the agg...
متن کاملAsymmetric printing of molecules and zeolites on self assembled monolayers.
Microcontact printing (mCP) is used to immobilize dyes and peptides asymmetrically, by a "peptide coupling" reaction, on monolayers of zeolite L crystals in the contact area between the stamp and the surface of the monolayer. Chemically patterned surfaces of monolayers of zeolite L crystals are obtained by using patterned stamps with different ink solutions. Additional printing of functionalize...
متن کاملModulating two-dimensional non-close-packed colloidal crystal arrays by deformable soft lithography.
We report a simple method to fabricate two-dimensional (2D) periodic non-close-packed (ncp) arrays of colloidal microspheres with controllable lattice spacing, lattice structure, and pattern arrangement. This method combines soft lithography technique with controlled deformation of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomer to convert 2D hexagonal close-packed (hcp) silica microsphere arrays into nc...
متن کاملAccelerated Articles Generation of Micrometer-Sized Patterns for Microanalytical Applications Using a Laser Direct-Write Method and Microcontact Printing
This paper describes a procedure that allows the rapid generation of elastomeric masters for microcontact printing (μCP) and for a new variant of this technique: controlled sagging microcontact printing (CSμCP). Using a low-power laser (10 mW) operating at 532 nm, the desired pattern is ablated in a thin poly(methyl methacrylate) film doped with a dye (rhodamine B base). Subsequent pattern tran...

A continuous roll-to-roll microcontact printing (MCP) platform promises large-area nanoscale patterning with significantly improved throughput and a great variety of applications, e.g. precision patterning of metals, bio-molecules, colloidal nanocrystals, etc. Compared with nanoimprint lithography, MCP does not require a thermal imprinting step (which limits the speed and material choices), but...
