摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention include hierarchically-dimensioned, microfiber-based dry adhesive materials featuring dense arrays of microfibers with free tips terminating in numerous microfibrils. In certain embodiments, more than two levels of microfiber-dimension hierarchy may be employed, each dimension involving smaller microfibrils emanating from the tips of the microfibers or microfibrils of the next highest dimensional level. Various additional embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods for preparing hierarchically-dimensioned, microfiber-based dry adhesive materials. These methods include single-pass or multi-pass imprint-lithography, pattern masking and etching, and imprinting fiber-embedded substrates followed by etching.

Methods for fabricating the memory array are disclosed.
摘要:
The present invention includes a method and system for correcting web deformation during a roll-to-roll process. The present invention includes controllable mechanical components that are capable of dynamically adjusting the planarity of the web during the roll-to-roll process. By adjusting the web during the roll-to-roll process, the accuracy of the layer-to layer alignment of successive patterning steps is greatly increased thereby enabling the production of electronic structures with lower overlap capacitance and higher resolution. A first aspect of the present invention is a method for correcting web deformation during a roll-to-roll process. The method includes initiating a roll-to-roll process involving a flexible web substrate, detecting deformation in the flexible web substrate during the roll-to-roll process and dynamically aligning the flexible web substrate based on the detected deformation.
