Abstract

A simple methodology to fabricate micrometer- and nanometer-scale patterned surfaces with multiple chemical functionalities is presented. Patterns with lateral dimensions down to 110 nm were made. The fabrication process involves multistep gas-phase patterning of amine, thiol, alkyl, and fluorinated alkyl-functional organosilane molecules using PDMS molds as shadow masks. Also, a combination process of channel diffused plasma etching of organosilane molecular thin films in combination with masked gas-phase deposition to fabricate multilength scale, multifunctional surfaces is demonstrated.
