Mystery Of Nanopillars Solved: Research Paves Way For New 3-D Lithography Method

Saturday, October 24, 2009 - 23:21 in Physics & Chemistry

Scientists have uncovered the physical mechanism by which arrays of nanoscale pillars can be grown on polymer films with very high precision, in potentially limitless patterns. This nanofluidic process could someday replace conventional lithographic patterning techniques now used to build three-dimensional nano- and microscale structures for use in optical, photonic, and biofluidic devices.
