摘要:
Process for producing patterned, micron and nanometer scale features by reacting or mixing in the small volumes at the intersections of coalescing drops, at the fronts of colliding thin films in front of spreading drops, or in the pore space of a porous medium under the drop. The process can be implemented on smooth, rough or porous surfaces and embodiments include multiplexed, single drop chemical or biochemical sensors and encryption of information of a printed page.
