High-Resolution Resistless Nanopatterning on Polymer and Flexible Substrates for Plasmonic Biosensing Using Stencil Masks

ABSTRACTLow cost fabrication is key to the successful introduction of organic electronics and roll to roll manufacturing processes. We propose here that extending flexography into the micron size resolution regime may provide an economical commercialization path for plastic devices. Flexography is a high-speed technique commonly used for printing onto very large area flexible substrates.[1] Although low resolution and poor registration are characteristics of today's flexographic process, it has many similarities with soft lithographic techniques. This work shows that large, (12”×12”) high-resolution printing plates appropriate for use on small tag and label flexographic presses can be prepared using simple and inexpensive flexographic compatible processes. We illustrate the use of these plates for three representative soft lithographic processes: microcontact printing, replica molding, and phase shift lithography.

High-resolution 21-cm line observations in a region aroundlII= 120°,b11= +15°, have revealed four types of structure in the interstellar hydrogen: a smooth background, large sheets of density 2 atoms cm-3, clouds occurring mostly in groups, and ‘Cloudlets’ of a few solar masses and a few parsecs in size; the velocity dispersion in the Cloudlets is only 1 km/sec. Strong temperature variations in the gas are in evidence.

Constructive Criticism

Abstract The Hooks et al. review of microbiota-gut-brain (MGB) literature provides a constructive criticism of the general approaches encompassing MGB research. This commentary extends their review by: (a) highlighting capabilities of advanced systems-biology “-omics” techniques for microbiome research and (b) recommending that combining these high-resolution techniques with intervention-based experimental design may be the path forward for future MGB research.

AbstractWe present the results of the analysis of a movie taken over a small field of view in the intermediate corona at a spatial resolution of 0.5“, a temporal resolution of 1 s and a spectral passband of 7 nm. These CCD observations were made at the prime focus of the 3.6 m aperture CFHT telescope during the 1991 total solar eclipse.
