Facile colloidal lithography on rough and non-planar surfaces for asymmetric patterning.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Free-standing colloidal arrays can be easily transferred to supported fibers. These films conform and provide the template to have consistent submicrometer and nanometer features transferred to the periphery of rough, 7 μm diameter fibers. This technique is adjustable to a number of fiber surfaces and colloidal template sizes.

Nanometer-Scale Patterning on PMMA Resist by Force Microscopy Lithography
Nanoscale science and technology has today mainly focused on the fabrication of nano devices. In this paper, we study the use of lithography process to build the desired nanostructures directly. Nanolithography on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) surface is carried out by using Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) equipped with silicon tip, in contact mode. The analysis of the results shows that the ...
متن کاملThree-dimensional colloidal crystal-assisted lithography for two-dimensional patterned arrays.
In this paper, we report our recent work on preparing two-dimensional patterned microstructure arrays using three-dimensional colloidal crystals as templates, namely, colloidal crystal-assisted lithography. Two alternative processes are described and involved in colloidal crystal-assisted lithography. One is based upon imprinting the polymer films with three-dimensional silica colloidal crystal...
متن کاملLithographically directed deposition of silica nanoparticles using spin coating
Directed self-assembly is an important direction for the extension of patterning to the nanoscale regime and below. Here, examples are given of both individual particle placement and composite structure formation involving assemblies of many nanometer scale particles, both on patterned surfaces and on planar surfaces where the photoresist is used as a sacrificial layer to define the pattern and...
متن کاملTunable two-dimensional non-close-packed microwell arrays using colloidal crystals as templates.
In this paper we demonstrate a facile and efficient way to fabricate poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) molds with hexagonal non-close-packed (ncp) arrangements of microwells by casting PDMS prepolymer onto two-dimensional (2D) ncp colloidal crystals. The templates of the 2D ncp colloidal crystals were fabricated via coupling lift-up soft lithography and solvent-swelling. We found that the depths of...
