Abstract:
The present invention provides a variety of interrelated methods of coating non-random and ordered arrays of particles, as well as films containing such arrays. The present invention also relates to the coated non-random and ordered arrays of particles and films prepared therefrom. The coated non-random and ordered arrays are obtained by the use of ferrofluid compositions which may be curable. The arrays and films may contain electrically-conductive particles useful in electronic applications for effecting contact between conductors.
