Description:

Conductive polymer nanolines having widths as small as 45 nm were obtained on glass using a novel scanning probe lithographic (SPL) technique at writing speeds of >5 m/s. Herein we demonstrate that our nanowriting is >1500 times faster than current SPL nanoscale writing of conductive polymers. The lack of a specific restriction on the choice of substrates and the ability to write within a polymer matrix to provide a continuous film that is either 2-D or 2.5-D provide tremendous potential for SPL techniques in nanotechnology and plastic electronics applications.
