The development of lithography methods for fabricating submicrometer and more recently sub-100nm features is of great interest for both fundamental and technological purposes. many structures, when miniaturized to the sub-micrometer length scale, possess architecture dependent chemical and physical properties. The ability to print such structures and interface them with larger architectures is opening applications in electronics, optics, catalysis, and biosensing. Dip-Pen nanolithography(DPN) is a soft lithography method that employs an NHS pattern chemical agent onto surfaces from nanometer to micrometer scale. However, most DPN methods have employed patterning of alkanethiol molecules and alkanesilane molecules on a gold surface and silicone oxide surface, respectively. Recently, Crook et. al. reported DPN on a modified poly(acrylic acid) surface. we synthesized a polymer containing NHS (N-hydroxy succinimide) ester moiety as a side group and characterized their abilites for DPN |
