Abstract: A coat micro tip can include a tip having a base and an oppositely disposed tip end having a radius of curvature of less than 1 μm and a graphene film conformally coated on the tip. A method of making a graphene coated tip can include immersing a tip in a fluid comprising a graphene film floating on a surface of the fluid over the tip, disposing the immersed tip at an angle relative to the graphene film floating on the surface of the fluid as measured from a plane parallel to the base of the tip, and coating the tip with the graphene film by gradually bringing the graphene film into contact with the tip while maintaining the relative angle between the floating portion of the film and the tip during coating

The disclosure further provides a method of depositing at least two ink compositions on PPL tip array, including applying a first ink to a first defined area using a first spray applicator, and applying a second ink to a second defined area using a second spray applicator. The disclosure further provides a method of scaling a linear ink composition gradient provided by at least two spray applicators to a PPL tip array having a length, L, including positioning the spray applicators at a distance of about 5.0 L to about 8.0 L relative to the surface of the PPL tip array, positioning the spray applicators at a distance of about 0.5 L to about 3.0 L relative to each other, and applying an ink composition.

Abstract: A method of forming a nanostructure on a substrate surface can include heating a substrate comprising a composition comprising a block copolymer and a nanostructure precursor to a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the block copolymer and below the decomposition temperature of the block copolymer to aggregate the nanostructure precursor to form a nanostructure precursor aggregated composition. The method can further include heating the nanostructure precursor aggregated composition to a temperature above the decomposition temperature of the nanostructure precursor to decompose the polymer and form the nanostructure.
