This article provides an overview of various patterning methodologies, and it is organized
into three major sections: generation of patterns, replication of patterns, and three …

Microcontact printing is a remarkable surface patterning technique. Developed about 10
years ago, it has triggered enormous interest from the surface science community, as well as …

We are developing a high-resolution printing technique based on transferring a pattern from
an elastomeric stamp to a solid substrate by conformal contact. This is an attempt to …

Cell adhesion, spreading and migration require the dynamic formation and dispersal of
contacts with the extracellular matrix (ECM). In vivo, the number, availability and distribution …

This review is an account of our efforts to develop a versatile and flexible microfluidic
technology for surface‐processing applications and miniaturizing biological assays. The …

This paper describes the first example of the patterning of surfaces via nanocontact printing
with chemically distinct features in the< 50 nm scale over 3× 3 mm2. These ultrasmall …

Microcontact printing of proteins from an elastomeric stamp has been demonstrated on a
limited number of substrates. This work explores the generality of this method of patterning …

Hybrid nanoscale patterning strategies combine the registration and addressability of
conventional lithographic techniques with the chemical and physical functionality enabled …

Microfluidic networks (μFNs) are passive (self-filling) devices incorporating microchannels
for guiding minute volumes of fluids over surfaces. μFNs can be employed to localize the …
