Abstract:
This thesis focuses on the low-cost approach for long range pattern formation with polymers. The size of the features varies from micro to nano. We investigate a variety of polymeric structures comprising straight to undulated micro threads or micro/nanodroplets of homo or blend polymers. The methodology, which has been adopted here, is a form of self assembled mico/nanostructures from a moving contact line, termed as dynamic contact line lithography (DCLL).
