Figure 1: PDMS master is created by patterning silicon, pouring and curing the PDMS, and peeling away from the substrateFigure 2: Thiol is poured over the stamp and let dry. Conformal contact is made with the substrate and pattern is left behind.
Microcontact printing (or μCP) is a form of soft lithography that uses the relief patterns on a master polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) stamp or Urethane rubber micro stamp[1] to form patterns of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of ink on the surface of a substrate through conformal contact as in the case of nanotransfer printing (nTP).[2] Its applications are wide-ranging including microelectronics, surface chemistry and cell biology.
