20080272516Successive Shrinking of Elastomers - a Simple Miniaturization Protocol to Produce Micro- and Nano-Structures - A stepwise contraction and adsorption nanolithography (SCAN) patterning process can shrink complex microstructures (produced by current microfabrication technology) into the nanometer region.
