- *Abstract
-
In prior art, none of the existing technologies/mechanisms are capable of extending optical lithographic limits for elastomeric materials. Moreover, the existing lithographic techniques, such as e-beam lithography, dip-pen lithography, and nano-imprinting are associated with one or more limitations such as high cost, slow processing time, and small functional area. This invention relates to a novel procedure for elastomer-assisted manufacturing, especially for fabricating flexible electronic systems/devices.
