Abstract

We have discovered a micro/nanopatterning technique based on the patterning of a PDMS membrane/film, which involves bonding a PDMS structure/stamp (that has the desired patterns) to a PDMS film. The technique, which we call "bond-detach lithography", was demonstrated (in conjunction with other microfabrication techniques) by transferring several micro- and nanoscale patterns onto a variety of substrates. Bond-detach lithography is a parallel process technique in which a master mold can be used many times, and is particularly simple and inexpensive.
