摘要
Micromolding in capillaries of polystyrene has been carried out using a polydimethylsiloxane stamp, derived from a compact disk (CD) as master, while heating above the glass transition temperature of polystyrene. The resulting pattern contained a replica of the parallel channels but with an important difference that trenches of width similar to 30 nm were found in between. The nanotrenches in polystyrene could be filled with metals by physical deposition and electroless plating. This method finds potential applications in nanoelectronics and nanofluidics.
