Soft lithography is a family of non-photolithographic techniques used for fabricating micro- and nanostructures using elastomeric stamps, molds, and conformable photomasks. Unlike conventional ...

Soft lithography facilitates the fabrication of intricate three-dimensional patterns and structures at both microscale and nanoscale dimensions. Diverging from photolithography, a technique commonly ...

Soft lithography is a fabrication technique used to create micro- and nanoscale patterns. Developed in the early 1990s by George M. Whitesides and colleagues, it simplifies pattern formation by using ...

The method of fabricating structures and devices at the nanoscale, known as nanofabrication, has resulted in major developments in several fields, such as electronics, medicine, and materials science.

Controlled light masking and tuned platinum catalysts make it possible to volumetrically 3D print silicone devices with open channels, eliminating molds and reducing fabrication time to minutes.

Microfluidics has emerged as a pivotal technology for the precise manipulation of fluids within channels of micrometre dimensions. At the heart of this approach are droplet generation techniques, ...
