    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a massively parallel patterning tool for the deposition of single metals or metal alloys with size and composition control. Methods of the disclosure use a hydrogel array of pyramidal pen tips as a medium for localized electrodeposition, in conjunction with a scanning probe lithography platform and a three-electrode cell. This versatile technique can be used for high-throughput 3D printing, biomolecule patterning, or screening of catalyst nanoparticles or thin films.

    Abstract: A method of preparing a metal nanoparticle can include depositing an ink on a substrate using nanolithography to form a polymer reactor, wherein the ink comprises at least one metalloporphyrin functionalized polymer comprising a metal ion, porphyrin, and a polyethylene oxide polymer; and thermally annealing the polymer nanoreactor under conditions sufficient to form the nanoparticle. The thermal annealing can include a first stage that includes annealing the polymer nanoreactor at a temperature of about 100° C. to about 350° C. for a time sufficient to aggregate the metal ions in the polymer reactor, and a second stage that includes annealing the aggregated polymer nanoreactor at a temperature of about 500° C. to about 600° C. for a time sufficient to reduce the metal ion and decompose a polymer component of the polymer nanoreactor to thereby form the metal nanoparticle.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods of printing indicia on a substrate using a tip array comprised of elastomeric, compressible polymers. The tip array can be prepared using conventional photolithographic methods and can be tailored to have any desired number and/or arrangement of tips. Numerous copies (e.g., greater than 15,000, or greater than 11 million) of a pattern can be made in a parallel fashion in as little as 40 minutes.
