Research Abstract |
):A novel thermal imprinting technique has been developed to enable the high-throughput fabrication of through holes with a minimum feature of a few tens of micrometers in a wide variety of polymers with high quality and precision by using an array of out-of-plane, hollow microneedles as an imprint tool. This technique can also be applicable to the formation of through holes with almost any non-circular cross-sections (triangle, square, star-shaped holes, etc.) as well as circular ones.
