Form of
soft lithography that uses micron-scale and smaller relief patterns on a master elastomer stamp to form
images on the surface of a substrate through conformal contact.
Note: Stamps fabricated from polydimethylsiloxane are often used to make patterns of self-assembled monolayers on a metal, such as gold.
