Additive Patterning of Conductors and Superconductors by Solution Stamping Nanolithography

Solution stamping nanolithography (SSNL) was used to print patterns of metallic copper and high-temperature-superconducting YBa2Cu3O7 (see Figure). SSNL combines soft lithography and chemical-solution deposition to achieve direct printing of inorganic materials. The size of the printed patterns is determined by both the stamp feature size and the wetting properties of the solution.
