DOI: 10.1039/d2sm00873d
Abstract: We report on the preparation of micropatterned functional surfaces produced by inducing an out-of-plane deformation on elastic substrates and fixing these by creating a rigid oxidized top layer. Specifically, the elastic substrate used was Polydimethylsiloxane… read more here.
