Abstract

Two-dimensional ordered arrays of polystyrene microspheres (PSMSs) with a large-scale area were successfully fabricated on a lithographically patterned substrate using a so-called tapered cell. The repetition of the deposition procedure provided the subsequent second array on the first array as a template. Consequently, we succeeded in the fabrication of a Kagome structure on the hexagonally patterned substrate, and evidently observed through the corresponding fluorescence microscopy images that two types of fluorescent PSMSs were, respectively, separately arranged in the dimple and on the terrace. Namely, a potential application of the present method using a patterned substrate would be the step-by-step deposition of microspheres with different refractive indexes, and optoelectronic and magnetic properties.
